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 Carthage R-9 school district has many different buildings and classes that make my education even better. There is a tech center that has a lot of computer courses, carpentry, culinary, and even more. Carthage High school and the district as a whole spends a lot of time and money to make sure the students get what they need.
