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.

The best part is making new friends and memories. Our teachers are really great and they are easy to connect with and they are very caring. The only worst part for me is that I will be graduating this year and it is sad because I have made great memories and friends that will last a lifetime.

Northeast Jones is the place where I grew up and calling home. I was involved in multiple clubs and sports such as football, basketball, FFA, TARS, and FCA. At this school I became closer to people that I call family.
