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.

The parent and teachers and all staff are more worried about sports than anything here at Greenwood, as long as you do good sports that is all that seems to matter, I needed help with college and I couldn't get anyone to help me and my parents aren't college graduates so it was really hard for me, so I am going to trade school due to no other options for me.

Overall my experience at Greenwood High School has been a fairly good one. I would have to say some of the best parts about my experience are the extracurriculars, such as the clubs. Also, all of the sporting events.
