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.

Over the years that I've gone to Iota, I've loved it. I've learned a lot about school and life from my teachers. I've made a good amount of friends that I love. This school has helped me be a better person. I feel that I am more than prepared for college because of Iota High School.

Worst part about Iota High was not having the freedom that the classes above and below us have. The best part was having dual enrollment because I was able to get ahead in my college courses. I would change the way teachers and staff have favorites and focus on better the school as a whole.

My experience was incredible and i have learned a lot in this school, i enjoy very well the teachers company and staff. The best part is that the learning system there was pretty easy and you will learn without pressure. The worst part was there is a time that we need to adjust for learning to learn. Also, the distance of each students bonds.
