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 enjoyed my time at the school but I would like to see less policing of the students. Many times it felt closer to a prison than a school and it does affect a student's ability to learn.

I believe that Parkway South gave me a very average high school experience. Some teachers do really care and others don't.
most of the teachers don't even teach you basically just say figure it out however you want to, and there is kids beating up resource officers in total its just a terrible school
uneducated staff and horrible bathrooms. bullying is a constant struggle here and anything they do doesn't help. we are forced to be here for a majority of our current lives and they can't even make it tolerable. in fact, they find any and every way to screw it up.
