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.

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 was very good academically and I was able to excel in the areas that I wanted to, however the lack of diversity and the small population made it difficult to expose myself to topics and events that I would have liked to.

Georgetown High School is a small tight-knit community. We as a school come together and are able to make changes not only within our school but within our community. We are all for helping others and making the school and community better. Something that we could change would be our attitude towards high school. Like many others we do not always want to get up early and go to school. If the environment can be more exciting students will be more willing to get up and head to school.
