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.

The faculty is great they make sure you're okay and that everything is going well. Classes are great and help get an advantage in college and get your classes in. Overall Cosby is a great school from academics to even sports. If you love a great sports family and enjoy the game. Cosby sure does know how to support one another in the end we are one big family.

Cosby High School has a very friendly environment. All the teachers know you by name and really care how your day is going. They really try to get you ready for life , also for those that don't choose to go to college. Cosby High has taught me a lot, from learning how to over come obstacles to rejoicing in the triumphs. This school has forever changed my life.

Cosby High became my home for 4 of the best years of my life. Becoming an Eagle guided me to become the person I am today and helped me better myself and my future! A stronger tradition and culture doesn't exist elsewhere!

Like the other reviewer, I went on to graduate college without owing much to the education I received at Cosby. I had to re-educate myself post high school in order to catch up with my co...

I am a Cosby High School alumni and I will say that the education I received at CHS was not a quality education. Upon graduating from CHS, I began classes at a community college that fall, and I feel that I was not prepared academically or mentally. The school is too focused on sports and not enough...
