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.

Culpeper County High School, like many schools, has had it's flaws, but is somewhere I have become very fond of and somewhere I will miss after I graduate.

Um, I survived, and I was lucky to participate in early college courses, so that was at least beneficial to my academic career. Overall, pretty average high school. :I

I'm a senior at Culpeper County High School, and I have learned so much throughout my 4 years of being there. We have amazing teachers and staff who help us to become better everyday and become successful. I feel the need to say that our school needs better resources into our safety. Overall everything else is getting us where we need to stand. I would just like the resources for our safety to change and for administrators to better understand students.

The school has great leadership and direction. I have seen alot of kids going to top notch colleges across the country including Harvard and UVA. The school has a great mindset and rewards academics and athletics. It has been a great experience for us and my two youngest will be attending soon.

I always loved this school for the 3 years I was there I was able to branch out and find a community of great teachers and students who were always there to help me.

I honestly wish this school was never built. I'd rather be in Rappahanock since it's closer because some of these teachers are nasty and rude and all i'm trying to do is pass with at least a 65 and they already make that hard enough.
