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.

The Jamestown Area School District is a smaller high school in the Jamestown, PA area. Because of its smaller size, teachers have more opportunities to help out students one-on-one as well as in the class as a whole. This allows the academics to be the priority, and the teachers wonderful at their job. Sports are a bit lacking—for example, the district lacks its own football team. The sports we have, however, yield much excitement from its students.
