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 loved that the teachers were genuinely interested in my everyday life outside of school and that they were always there when I needed their help!

Size of it- very personable and everyone is there to help educate all the kids! All the teachers are wonderful and kids are out to help other students when they can. My kids both have been there about four years now we have moved with the military but this by far has been the best school yet!

Norfork High school was is a good school to go to if you like small school, because it has about 350 kids k-12. The staff a quite friendly, and anything they don't offer as a teacher you can get through online schooling. Nice people, and there are no bullies in the school, since everybody knows everybody else.

Norfork elementary has its problems and is now limiting parent involvement most of the teachers are experienced and curious some think they rule even over the parent and the principle and superintendent is allowing it If you are an involved parent and want to work with the school for the good of you...

Norfork High School is fantastic. The teachers care about the students and help to keep parents informed. The principal has many years experience and is respected by the children. The parent involvement exceeded all of my expectations. Above all, this is a nice & quiet school. You dont have to worry...
