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.

My overall experience hasn't been bad I'd say. The school is decent and the teachers work hard to educate us. I happen to like a good bit of my teachers and the school is genuinely a very chill and relaxed place. I'm in band as well and I enjoy all of our games, pep rally's and other activities as such.

Overall great school that really cared about their students. It was just a small school in a small town so It was annoying dealing with that.

I think Cherryville is a great place for every type of student. There are plenty of clubs and sports for those who aren't as dedicated to academics, and there are many honors and AP classes available for those who are. The teachers are all dedicated and the other faculty are endlessly caring.

Teacher to student ratio varies, depending on the class but mainly it's high student number to only one teacher. Expectations that the school requires of the students are very high. Sp...

We moved from out of state. Our child is now going into high school here. We were given wrong information on the accurate time for freshmen orientation. When we arrived already on his folder was written LATE. Already putting a negative label on a child. And there was NO name tags saying who the teac...
