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.

There isn't really anything special about this school. The only thing we're known for is our football team. The staff is really nice and actually care about the students and parents. Bassfield High School is an average school with outstanding people in it.

I love Bassfield High School because all four of my kids went there and two of them have graduate. My nieces and nephew go there. I also love it because they do there best to help the students.
