Overall, Newton High is a wonderful school. Here, you'll learn a lot if you have an ear to hear. The faculty make it their duties to prepare us for our adult lives and they do exceedingly well. I find the most astounding feature of Newton High to be our unity. Here, we are stronger together.

I enjoy attending Newton High school. The lunches are just not ideal as to the other lunches at the middle and elementary, there's a big difference between them. There's many sports here but not a lot, mostly the common ones like basketball, volleyball, track, ect.

The teachers here will treat the students as if they are their own! They will listen and help as much as they can.

I see the ratings on this school are old. Don't believe the positive ratings on this site. This is truely an awful school system just look at their test scores on the Mississippi education department website they speak for themselves. Too bad I can't give it 0 stars.

I left this school 2 years ago and i've never been happier! This school is full of misbehaving idiots and the teachers cannot control them. When I went to school here i felt like i was in prison other than a school. Now I have graduated and recieved a scholarship. I never would have succeeded at any...
