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.

My experience was about average. I feel like the college readiness in my school is poor. Other than that, I feel like all other areas are average with room to improve.

I enjoyed some people at school, but for the most part, there wasn't enough care put into our school. By faculty, administrators, and other students.
3.0 Senior
3/13/2023
In most cases, I have to give Gurdon High School an average rating. This is simply because, as a district, the school doesn't take any extra measure in order to make things the best as possible. The conditions are better than a lot of places that are struggling, but they could definitely be better.
