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.

My experience had some ups and down but overall my experience here for the past 4 years has been good. The support from the alumni is great and the academics are successful. We have a 94% graduation rate and we have been brought off the failing list because of 24'. The band is GREAT and big representation of the school. The football team needs some work but overall the sports are good. I would recommend coming here.

The experience I have had at The Mattie T. Blount Highschool has overall been nice. A change I would like to see is more dual enrollment classes.
