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.

Lincoln County High School could become more welcoming of all types of students. Students of different ethnicities and races are not ridiculed but members of the LGBTQ+ community do not have a particularly safe home at this school.

I think LCHS is a wonderful school work great teachers. I think they should change the way students are punished because some students will get a way with things they should not.

It's been overall pretty good. A lot of the negative points of interest mainly have to do student culture rather than what the school itself does. While there is a modest amount of influence that administration has, the student bodies have a reputation for being very independent. Aside from that, it's a fairly good high school if academics are in mind. I'd give it an 7/10, 8/10 on a good day.

I feel that LCHS has some serious work to do. Academics are in serious disrepair. Though there are some great teachers, they just aren't supported by administration of ex-football coaches. It's a running joke among students that it really doesn't matter what you put on your class selection sheet. It...
