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 like Charleston High School because the district was so small. Smaller classroom allowed everyone to get fully engaged in what was being taught. If I could change anything about Charleston High, I'll change the faculty members. Most of the teachers didn't care if you learned anything or not. They focused mainly on punishing students than helping them succeed.

Charleston High School is full of fellowship and school spirit . Sports are a big part of school life , especially football . It is a small school where teachers tend to know their students personally .
