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.

During my 4 years at Southside High School the experience wasn't the greatest but it also wasn't the worst. The ones that were the best help were the assistant principal and a few teachers.

The best part about Southside is playing sports and meeting people. If you don't get involved you are most likely going to be bored and not really like the school.
