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 like for there to be more class options. I believe there aren't enough class options for students to explore and find out what they like to do. Luckily they had a class that allowed me to find my dream field.

Andrew Jackson High School is a Fine Arts School in Kershaw SC. The academics at this school are average. Most of the focus is on sports.
3.0 Senior

I like the size of the school. Most of the teachers are pretty good. There are a few staff members that can be rude. There are boys and girls sports teams, band, chorus, and clubs. For the most part, AJHS is an average high school.
