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 experience at Bell County High School was good. I like all my teachers and they have taught me well. I feel safe at this school and know that I can reach out to my teachers if I need to do so. Though, there is bullying sometimes, most of the time people seem to get along well and the teachers are always available to help.

My overall experience with Bell County High School is a positive one. I've had some great teachers here who have made learning something to actually look forward to every day. They have also been a great support here and listen to students who need someone to talk to. Bell County High School is a place that, I feel, is very welcoming.

Average High School. Nothing special but nothing bad either. All the teachers are great and the community is nice. Classes are fairly simple and easy, so stress is not too much of a problem; however they get pretty boring

Very average high school in the southern U.S. Terrible lunches, underpaid teachers, all the funds go towards sports. A young man once threatened to "Naruto chop" me. There are also some ceiling tiles missing in places, and there may be raccoons in the walls.

The teachers are amazing, wonderful people; But the students are some of the most disrespectful people I have seen. I feel like I’m losing brain cells being here. School is toxic and is destroying the mind of this generation and generations yet to come.
