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.

Breathitt County High School has helped me grow into the person I want to be. The teachers are helpful, encouraging, and overall are exceptional at making sure you receive the education you're there for.

I've been screamed at on the buses, threatened to have the police called on me for yelling at boys calling me names, and overall I just don't feel safe.
4.0 Senior
8/8/2019
As a senior, I've seen a lot of changes come in and out of Breathitt County High School. Over the past couple of years, safety has improved with the installation of a security vestibule and parking passes for all students and faculty. The teachers have adapted new ways to connect with students and better their connection with them.
