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 feel overall Keystone Heights High School is a decent school. Students need to be provided with more resources as well as unbiased staff, sports, and clubs.

Keystone Heights Junior/Senior High is the school that I have attended all of the years I have been in high school. This school is great for how small the town is. Connecting with other students is very easy and most of the classes are average sized student wise. The best part about this school is the fact that you can dual enroll at Sante fe Community College and receive your AA before you graduate.

I went to Keystone in my Sophomore year specifically so I could dual enroll. I made a lot of friends and the environment was great!
