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.

I personally enjoyed the school especially all the teachers who were there to help me if I needed. Even all the students were amazing individuals who were all very talented.

I like the opportunity that the Early College gives students. The staff is very supportive. I like that it prepares me for a 4 year university.

Surry Early College High School is an amazing school which helps provide students, like myself, who can't afford college a chance to get an associates degree or a trade skill. I chose this school over traditional high school because there is less bullying and a better sense of belonging to the students who attend. The only thing I wish I could change is that we don't have many sports available for us.

The principal, Dr. White, has been horrible to our child and honestly the worst teacher or principal I have met. Do not send your child here.
