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.

There are a few true gems who work at this school. However, most graduates of the school will not attend big name universities, so do not except much advice and experience for your process if you are planning to attend Ivy-equivalent schools.

My experience at Haywood High School was average to be honest not much stands out with this school. It stands out in its sports department with outstanding players branching from basketball and football not to be exclusive I just never paid much attention to the baseball scene but my eyes do however capture much talent coming from the field and the court. The school also has many school groups to be apart of as well. One thing I would like to see done better is the execution of college readiness.

The principal, Dorothy Bond, has called for expulsion or suspension of students who identify with the LGBT community. She does not advocate the separation of state and religion and persecutes her own students.
