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.

This school is not a bad one. Small classes make for a great environment and the teachers that care make it even better. The athletics are climbing up the ladder with state championships in football this past season. GO REBS

Scott Central was a pretty okay type of school. Like every place else, your experience depends on what you make of it. I can say that I feel as if on an academic level I was not challenged as much, but my grades were wonderful. The sports department could use work, my suggestion is to hire coaches who not only care about the game, but the kids as well. Another thing that would be very beneficial is if everyone could just be on one accord with the things that occur around the facility.
