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 think Greenup is a great high school but i think the teachers could be better because some of them blatantly pick favorites.

My experience at GCHS wasn't the best, but I wouldn't want to go to any other school. They have the best teachers and staff to exist and are always providing help and opportunities to all students. The students themselves are the only bad thing about the school but, one thing is for sure...they come out successful.
