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 time at Chillicothe. The teachers really care and want you to succeed. They also do a pretty good job of preparing you for college, or giving other options if college is not for you. There have been some scandals in the past, but those seem to be taken care of now.

It's a great school. We have excellent teachers who really care about the students and encourage them to succeed. We have a principal who tries to help low-performing students have more opportunities to grow. Also we have many clubs and groups for students to get involved in.

This is a school that cares for its students. I have seen teachers and administrators purchase clothing, food, and pay school fees for students in need. I have witnessed staff members give of their time to tutor students after school, cheer them on at extra-curricular events, and provide support in...
