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 school taught me curriculum I needed to successfully transition into the real world. My school didn't focus on one subject but many. The teachers were 5 star individuals and instructors. I learned I didn't need my parents to succeed I just needed the confidence in myself that I could beat the odds/cycles my family set before me, and all I had to do was retain knowledge wisdom and perseverance. I'm happy to say pigeon forge high school taught me all three categories plus some.
