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.

There's really no creative, musical activities.. not really anything that lets you show your inner talent. Like art, or choir, band. We have yearbook, and that's as creative as it gets here.

Jonesboro is a very sports-oriented school. That's really all we have, besides FFA, One Act Play, and 4H. Personally, I wish we had some sort f a music program, but that's just me. They're very family-oriented, and the community is always there to lend a helping hand in whatever way the school needs. Pep rallies are great, the sports a re fun to watch -though we rarely make it past halftime because we 45 the other team. If I had to choose again, I would definitely stick with going to Jonesboro.
