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.

My school has been great to me as a kid who likes to go the extra mile. However, if you're a kid who makes Cd and just in the middle it probably isn't so great.

The senior advisors were not a lot of help to the students or parents for college scholarships and grants.

I love the environment and how nice and supportive the teachers are. I feel like having a relationship with the teachers is important because they can help out a lot which it comes to your future and school work. Although I do feel like Lewisburg needs to partake in more fun actives like pep rallies. We don't get a lot of outside of the classroom time because Lewisburg cares a lot about grades. This is a good thing because due to that we are in the top schools of Mississippi but I think kids deserve to have fun as well.

I used to be a student, and I wish I could say Lewisburg is the school I got lucky enough to graduate from. It's the best school I've ever gone to, and I wish I could go back, more than anything. Go Patriots!
