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.

Alcorn Central High School is wonderful, close knit high school. It is large enough where you can find that perfect fit whether it's sports or just clubs. ACHS has truly made me feel at home. I can't imagine going anywhere else. The faculty is amazing. They truly care about my education. I have excelled in standardized exams and I feel that I am prepared to conquer any career path I choose to follow.

Alcorn Central is the high school I graduated from in 2018. This school is a completely average Mississippi school. I never really learned anything and the school did nothing to help me get ready for college.

Small school and mostly focused on athletics more than education. Some of the teachers were outstanding but others did not care.
