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.

My overall experience in Jourdanton had been very well. I love the environment the teachers make for us. My best experience had been my teacher's ability to help me learn when i get overwhelmed. They work with me and still help me learn. I haven't had too many bad experiences other than rude kids. Which is not the schools fault. The only change i would like to see is a change in some of the staff members attitudes towards students. I have seen a few be very rude and outlandish with students. This has never personally happened to me but i have seen it.

It's a great school It is my first official full year and my experience has been filled with kind administrators and teachers with outgoing efforts to help those seeking a higher education. The best part of my time being here is how involved everyone here is into school sprite/pride doing fun activities like dressing up and or fun pep rallies. The worst part of the school has to be the limited amount of college classes or electives they have to offer. I would love to see this school get bigger so that they would offer more classes for those wanting to go to college.
