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.

5.0 Junior

My overall experience has been excellent, and still is. The school spirit is always high, school culture is rural, and everyone is easy to talk to. I am a student at Macon Sr. High School and in Dual Credit classes, I feel this is an advantage over the schools who don't offer this. One thing I would change is to bring in an Orchestra. Because we don't have one.

Macon has a very poor student support system. There are few teachers that truly get involved in improving the student's lives. Sports are prized over academics, even though that is poor as well. There have been numerous cases of bullies that went without punishment and enough fights to last my entire academic career. At one point, there were four different math teachers for one subject in one year.

Macon high school prepared me more for college than any other school I've seen. It has magnificent teachers but the facilities are rather old and the food is below average.
