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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Going to Cumberland Gap High School has been an experience. I've had some of the best teachers here. Believe it or not the school food is pretty good, we have a very large variety of foods. My music teacher has been my guidance over the years. I have grown tremendously over the past few years. My passion for music has really brought me out of my shell. I will always cherish my memories here.
