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.

Cottondale High School has an excellent and positive community, although their extracurricular activities and curriculum suffer from a lack of resources.

Cottondale High School doesn't offer all the same activities and opportunities that other schools have, but I have went to Cottondale schools on and off for most of my life and I love it. The teachers and administration can't get any better and always offer a helping hand. It's a good school and a great high school experience.
