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.

Colbert County High School doe not care about its students. It is a school that cares more about winning in football rather than its students. When people ask me where I go to school they groan when they hear it is Colbert County. I have been thought nothing of importance here, nothing that would help me in the real world. They told me when I asked for help applying to colleges to "just tap some button and you'll figure it out." I still haven't been able to apply because I'm scared I'll mess up the application. I have asked for help plenty of times for multiple things and they have brushed me to the side. This is a poor school and I don't want it to affect my chance of getting into college.

I love this school. All the staff and teachers there are always kind. It is a very friendly and welcoming school. I love small schools so this school is perfect for me i get more of a one on one learning experience when I am there and get to understand my curriculum better.
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.
