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.

I had some rough patches while attending Green Forest schools. I feel like most of the community was supportive. But I do believe there are areas where the faculty need to step it up a little.

Green Forest High School is a very good school for anyone who is looking for knowledge and long lasting friendships with student and or faculty. At Green Forest High, you are a student that is able to expand their knowledge through classrooms and the excellent teacher.

I loved how the teachers were about a year ago when they taught us something, unlike teachers that are here now. It is overall a good place to go to school in my opinion. The bad things is that this school doesn't take action in serious situations. Also, the teachers that are here now aren't passionate about teaching as our other teacher has been. The good thing is that the police officers on campus are nice to the students and are friendly.
