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 school is falling apart. The teachers are racist and pick favorites and pick on new students. Teachers don't care about even though they say they do and the teachers don't know the subjects they teach. The schools food is disgusting it's all old. The school is still in old times when it comes to diversity and acceptence especially among lgbtq+ students.

This school is the worst school I’ve ever went to. Teachers don’t care about they’re jobs or their students. Bullying gets no resolution, it just get’s forgotten about. Nothing about this school is great, in my personal opinion, there’s no fixing this, they should shut down.

Great school. I was an athlete here and we dominated Muscle Shoals and Deshler on the regular.
