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 like the school it not that bad from other schools, I would just like them to do better on lunch choices. And how clean they keep the school.

I was not the biggest fan of NHS but It wasn't awful. One thing that I did like about Neosho High School, was that it really was the perfect size. It wasn't huge but it also wasn't small. The things that I would like to see change is the resources for students and the athletics program. As a student athlete I didn't feel like the teachers cooperated with the athletes as well as they could have which caused a lot of stress. On strictly athletics, I don't think the mentality is correct and it hurts the kids for they are not successful. Other than that, my time at Neosho High was average.

I attended Neosho High School during my junior year. I graduated in 2019. The art classes I was taking were very beneficial for me. I received ribbons and metals for my artwork. I also won a scholarship from Crowder College in high school for on of my paintings, which was also posted on the cover of CJ art magazine and received the gold metal.

This school has gone way downhill. It used to be a school full of fun and school spirit. Now there are fights EVERY day. Most students are depressed and wanting to run away. The staff have no concern for the kids. The teachers ,at least most of them, don't care about there job. This school is REALLY...
