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.

My best parts of Pulaski county high school were the activities within the school such as Homecoming, football games, pep rally's because I felt it gave an opportunity to make fulfilled memories with the people I love. The teachers I've had have been helpful, kind, supportive and overall have given me a phenomenal education. I wouldn't say my worst experience was because of the school it's more within the battle of finding the right set of people to associate yourself with.

I think that my high school experience has brought me to the place that I am today. I have been used to a small-knit community and that is what I looked for going into college searches. I wanted to find a place that felt like home. With that being said, I think that a lot of other students may not feel that here in our community. I feel like some may feel left house based on their home life, their academic skill level, and their race. Even though we are a racism-free school, there are still some groups of kids and teachers that still make comments or say things without realizing who is around.
