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.

Latta High School is a school environment that makes you feel welcomed and safe as a student. The staff is incredibly helpful and always willing to better an individuals' education. I've attended Latta High School since kindergarten and now I'm a senior. I could not imagine growing up within another school.

I have had a good experience at the 2 years I have been intending Latta Highschool. Compared to my previously school in Asheville , NC. There is a lot less drama and bullying. One thing I like about latta high school is the teachers they are really nice and want you to succeed. One thing I would change about Latta high school is the lack of lockers every high school should have lockers.
