GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Barnesville High School is an overall good school. The teachers are passionate and the student body is close knit. Having grown up here, I am surely biased, but I have attended other schools across the country and this is the one I have gotten to know the best. While the school is not home to a very diverse group of people or opinions, it is slowly getting better as the town grows bigger and brings in new people.

I have heard that there are recent Bully issues that the school refuses to address! I graduated from the school and they are not a "proactive" learning environment. If I lived in the area, my children would not attend school here.
