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.

Florence is a very great environment. It has many opportunities for students and makes them feel like they're getting the full education that they want. Students are getting great education and also are able to be apart of many things including FFA, Honors Choir and even sports. The only thing that I could want a change into is students being active in those things, it is such a great experience and very fun to be in them.
