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 experience at Claxton High School will be years to remember for the rest of my life after I graduate. The teachers care about every single student and making sure they have everything they need no matter what. My basketball Coach is always here for me and pushes me to be the best player I can be on and off the court. I have so much love for everybody at Claxton High School and I am going to miss the times there dearly.

If you have any intention of your kids going to college, think seriously about another school. The study habits they teach barely get you past high school. Much less a university.
