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 overall experience at Jeff Davis High School has been great. The teachers are all amazing and I think they really know what they teach. I believe they have properly prepared me for college.

I was a newcomer to Jeff Davis County. I moved here at the beginning of my Freshman year in High School. I was of course nervous and anxious because I did not know how the people or the atmosphere would be like for me since I am " Fresh Meat" or the " Newbie" to the school. However, I am now a Senior this year and I can say that JDHS, is a school that is all around a great atmosphere and my worries faded away. Staff were nice, teachers actually taught, and students learned.

It is a very nice school although it may not be as fancy as a school from up North is it nice. Not much happens here which is a great and the teachers are nice too. As for the students they are also pretty respectful.

This is an excellent school that is totally focused on student success. This school goes beyond the basic classroom to help all students, even outside of school. It is a community.
