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.

Overall it has been a mostly positive experience throughout my entire school career. For the most part, they try and provide for every student and make sure everything is accessible to families. With my school specifically, they struggle with the teachers and the quality of education that they are expecting them to teach their students. But overall I would say the Jefferson County Schools is a good district as a whole.

My daughters go to JCOS. It is a wonderful school, from their amazing ELA to their High school. My oldest has learned the value of others, by attending a trip to a reservation, to help the Native Americans. That was a huge eye opener for her, to know there are other people that have a lot less than...

I am a current senior at JCOS. I have been going there for only three years, so I know what a traditional school is like. At traditional schools I spent hours a night working on homework, and dreaming of my future. high school was an experience I had to just get through, not one I planned to enjoy....
