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 loved my experience at Brussels High School. Everyone there is so nice and the bond you have with your teachers is irreplaceable.

Most of our programs--art, music, foreign language---have been cut from our school. We live in a rural area so many teachers are local residents. Our school's budget is tight so we do not have the resources for any extra programs or opportunities as larger schools do.
