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 would have liked to see more teachers help prepare students for college. I feel I had no preparation to move forward for scholarships, grants, FAFSA even.

I enjoyed the connections I made with teachers and peers. Throughout my 4 years at Jefferson High School, I learned many lessons including how to motivate myself for the real world, learn who I am as a person, and who I am going to make of myself in the future.

In middle school I went to private schools so I thought it was be hard to make friends when Transferring over the a public school. I did not know how different it would be. When I started freshman year I was so nervous but the staff did an amazing job to make me feel welcome and at home. My peers were also so nice and always helped me out. I never had a problem with the school they are always out to support each and every student. During sports games you always see staff showing up to support even though they are very busy. The school is like a big family we all push each other to do our best.
