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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

My time at Nashville Big Picture High School was pretty short seeming as I started as a junior and I am now senior. My junior year was amazing, and the environment was very welcoming and inviting. Learning there was easy as it was self paced and I was learning from the real world.
