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.

My experience at Sprayberry High School has had its ups and downs. The best part has been the people I've met and some teachers who really care and push you to do better. The worst part is that sometimes students have to figure a lot out on their own, especially with college and planning for the future. I think the school could improve by giving students more support and guidance.

The school should be rated a 8 or 9 on Greatschools, but due to a subjective “equity” score which doesn’t apply to Non-diverse schools, it has...
