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 that Ironton is one of the best choices for a school in the county. It has a rich history with academics and sports.

Ironton is great school to prepare students for the next step at college. The facilities are great and well taken care of. You can tell everyone really appreciates the school and wants to take care of it. There isn't much diversity, but that can be expected from a small town school in Appalachia. I have loved my experience at Ironton and I'm grateful to be a future alum.

When I went to this school,, everything was all about who your parents were. It was very biased. Each student was treated differently and it was more about its football program than its curriculum. If you played sports you got ushered along.

This school was very poorly ran when I went my 4 years there. They have coaches for teachers which is fine when they are teaching health, gym, etc..but I had a coaches son as a math teacher and he just went over football plays most the class.
