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.

My high school experience has been virtual but each time I had to visit for testing or to pick up my books for class. everyone was very friendly and nice.

I enjoy my peers and athletic teams. However, opportunities for higher-level classes are limited. Also, there is limited guidance when it comes to the upperclassmen.

Overall I have enjoyed my experience as being a student apart of Nandua High School. The best part I would have to say is the teachers are amazing they always want to make sure I understand what the assignment was that was being taught upon me that week. The worst part is I am a cheerleader and it is a struggle for us to practice because we don't have an auxiliary gym. Also I don't like that they do not have scouts/ college professors come out to watch us during our competitions so that we could get recruited, it's like we have to put ourselves out there or the colleges wouldn't know what we manage to put all our time in after school.

We can't say for sure, but this school is suspected of giving answers to kids on the SOL... so don't look at those to judge this school!
