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.

For a school in southern Ohio, Chillicothe High School is really great. I love the teachers and the experience was really immersive. During my time however, there were major changes to scheduling every year. Some of this is due to the covid-19 epidemic and some due to odd choices by the administration. It was weird having to re-learn high school every year but doable and worth it for the other aspects of the school.

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.

While there are a few good, dedicated teachers at this school, there are too many teachers that are not. The science and math programs are particularly weak, and graduating students that are college-bound are not being adequately prepared. While many courses are offered, few are quality.

Employed in the district from 2006-2012, I feel qualified to address some of the concerns that previous posts discussed. Yes, it's true that there were times that there were too many student altercations, a few (very few) unproductive staff members, and there may have been some issues with disciplin...
