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.

I liked that you could be yourself and how everyone was respectful to me. I would change some of the stuff that the teachers teach so that way we are more prepared for the real world.

Overall, I enjoyed my time at Loris High School. I had fun and made some awesome friends. These friends have become permanent members of my life and I am very thankful for them. Loris High definitely shaped me into the person I am today. However, the teaching staff did a very poor job teaching and the facility was never kept up to par. I always felt as if we were less than other schools in our county.

Loris High is a small school, so it does not offer many intriguing courses, especially AP. Teachers do not always lead rigorous classes, and sometimes the students are disrespectful and uncontainable. There is barely any SAT or ACT help offered. They do not serve vegetarian meals, so food choices are limited.
