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.

Quitman High School has a very welcoming environment, however it's not very diverse. Most of the administrators staff are like family to all of the kids.

I am very unhappy with this school. It is very unorganized. The dress code is horrible. I would not suggest you put your child in the quitman school district. The football team is average and so is the baseball team. The softball team is one of the best in the state.
