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.

I think that overall it's that of a decent school though falls in that and not anything better because of the school not being able to adapt with the times what once was okay isn't now and they won't change.

Bullying, drugs, unprotected sex, fighting and lack of accountability nor care from staff on these issues. The counselors are a joke. More students than what staff can handle. If your not rich they staff could care less about your child.

I have had a very good high school experience at Branson High School. I am involved in many activities and have been successful when it comes to academics. I think the overall environment is good and people are involved with school activities. I think there is a good opportunity for everyone to be successful and teachers and administration are willing to help.

We have three students in the district and could not be more impressed with every aspect. If you are unsure about Branson, just schedule a meeting with a building principal and they’ll show you first hand what makes this school great.
