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.

They're getting rid of some higher-level classes and while the CTE program is great, I want to go into academia and this school doesn't really allow me to take some of the classes that would be most helpful.

William Blount High School is a great school. They have a good choral and theatre program. Overall, they do have a great fine arts department. Many kids are able to be involved in multiple performing groups as well as participating in sports. I do think the PE programs could use improvement. Students get to go on trips with their groups they are a part of while making memories that will last a life time. Overall, William Blount is a great place for my kids to grow and learn.

This is the worst school any of my children have attended. Transportation is basically non-existant. The staff cant provide the correct charging cable to the chromebook they provide. They took back the incorrect charger, never gave my son the correct one, and charged me for it when we withdrew him....

The amount of fights that happen in a month is insane, there was drugs being dealt around the school and I refuse to believe the school can’t see this. There are real issues that they’re ignoring, the students want change, they were promised that they would be taken care of, and they’re not being ta...
