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.

Anson County Early College (ACEC) is the best school a student could ever attend. The staff at ACEC are all very welcoming, inclusive, and friendly. The best way to describe ACEC in one word would be family. The small environment allows staff and students alike to cultivate bonds and friendships that will last a lifetime.

The school environment is clean, and the staff are very friendly. There is access to a coffee bar, which is nice. The students have more freedom compared to the other high school in our area.

I believe we could turn those periods into something fun yet educational.
