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.

Incredibly racist and homophobic students, teachers who make fun of kids, bathrooms that are trashed every day, food that's nearly impossible to choke down, what is there to like?

I enjoy Putnam County because overall the atmosphere is good. It is a small area so everyone knows everyone. It can be good because you know there are always people there for you if needed. I would like to see the food change. It is not healthy and is not very good. I know the cooks try hard, but it is difficult because of the food from whoever we buy it from. I would also like to see more funding for the P.E. program. The weight machines in the weight room are starting to break because they are old. There is not enough money in the budget to buy all new machines, so I wish there were a way to fund raise for it.
