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 would say the best part of Jefferson is majority of the teachers. Most of them seem to really care about you and make your experience the best it can be. They seem less as mean strict teachers and more down to earth and understanding of their students. Personally, I would say the worst part is the math department. I feel that our math department was not helpful and other students would say the same.

It's an okay school. Small classes of 130 kids per graduating class. But it's also political. You gotta know people to be able to be popular or liked by coaches

Honestly, the classes are great and so are most of the teachers. The teachers are great at teaching the kids. They have a way of just making you understand what they are trying to teach you. Many of the kids are great people and I love that. The staff is super nice and always willing to help.

I could not have asked for a better place to call home for the last 12 years. The staff is more...
