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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Poca is an Amazing school. Though, the school is underfunded. Poca does not have programs available to highschool students that are much need to be prepared for college. Teachers will always offer to help, yet, so of the teachers are great at well... teaching. I have only had this problem with one teacher. yet, this one experience was enough to make me hate geometry. If you want your kid to have a great support system, this school is great. It's almost like a family. Though, they are many better options for student education in West Virginia. The teachers are great the funding is not.
