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.

Hi I'm Makala Byrom. I've gone to Port Barre since elementary school and I just recently graduated. The experience I had personally with this school wasn't the best. On a typical school day there was usually teachers not there and no work to do. I almost never had an actual class and it felt as if I was teaching myself,

I have always enjoyed the amount of things that are available to us students. The amount of clubs that we are bale to participate in makes me happy. Although there is a lot of positives, sometimes I feel that the students aren't always behaved well. I would like everyone to step into their future and look forward to the goals they can accomplish.

My time here was enjoyed because I was involved in multiple extracurricular activities. This school is like a little community. The staff is enjoyable. With all positives come negatives. The school is a bit rundown and needs some major repairs. I feel as if some students should have more opportunities to join clubs, but there is a bit of a lack of activities.
