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.

The overall best experience at Greenwood that I have had is definitely when homecoming comes and we have big pep rally's and there is so much school involvement at the games too.

Greenwood is an amazing school. Even being in middle school leading up to going into high school, greenwood was so i touch with their students to either get them prepared or to get them hyped up about coming to high school. No matter your view on anything, color, gender ect. they have always included everyone in anything they do. Green wood has so many different opportunities for everyone at the school from co-op, vo-tech, band, theater, clubs, and sports. I love Greenwood! Go Gators!!

Great school to attend, not a lot of violence, drug use, or anything of that matter *cough cough BGHS* and its just an overall really great experience for your kids. It's very safe, it gives you a great college experience, everyone is very friendly, and the food is pretty sub-par, not bad, but not good. I really recommend this school for anyone who wants a friendly college experience. Even as a quieter kid, I still have found my group of people and we hang out quite often.

This is systemic problem and increasingly worse.They post and advertise anti bullying and encourage reporting. But there is never any consequence to the bullies. Only the victims when they resist.Especially wi...

Best school in Warren County! The community the school creates embraces all learners. This is truly what 21st century learning looks like. South Warren, with its demographic should be crushing GHS on test scores, but they are barely edging Greenwood out. The ESL program is well above par, they offer...
