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.

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.

It's a fine establishment it could use work on the budget for school subjects instead of just adding new things onto the building. This school has had a few issues with accidentally letting pedophiles teach though. Overall it's a decent school but I wouldn't recommend going.

Bath County High School is a small high school with a lot of heart. It is nice to be able to feel safe daily and have teachers that do care. I couldn't imagine going to school anywhere else.

Not very accommodating to my illnesses. I had some very bad experiences with some faculty members. A friend of mine even shared similar experiences. Overall I didn't enjoy myself while I was there.
