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.

I go to South myself and I'm in 7th grade most of the teachers are helpful and kind, the only thing I wish they had was baseball, overall it's a very good school for those willing to learn.

Most students don't care about sports. The only teams are basketball, football, cross country, cheerleading, wrestling and track. Very few students care about the games and the gym is tiny and old.
