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.

Jackson County high school was an okay school. You had all of your basic classes that you needed and the teacher new what they were talking about. You had a wide variety of electives you could pick from ranging from art to automotive. It is a good school the only bad thing I can think about it is the lunches weren't that great but they are supposed to be fixing that in the coming years.
