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 love my school. I have been attending Junciton City Schools since kindergarten. I am still friends with the people I met in kindergarten. We have many choices for everyone. The smarter students are challenged but no one is left behind. We are prepared for college. We also excell in most of our athletic programs. We have won a state championship in almost all of our programs. The Junciton City School District is a great one.
