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.

It's a good school to learn from. There are all different types of people there so it's really easy to find friends.

They allowed me the opportunity to extend my knowledge beyond the typical high school setting which allowed me to get somewhat of a head start on my life after high school.

Most people that have heard of Mayfield know that we are known for our outstanding football program. But that's not all Mayfield has to bring to the table. They excel in academics each year. And the Mayfield High School Band always makes it to the final rounds, whether they win or not. Along with Pride and Tradition, Mayfield loves to focus on Excellence.. On and off the field.
