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.

At Rector High School I have achieved many goals. I have been able to learn and attend classes that interest me. The teachers have always helped me and I have learned a good work ethic. I would like to see more students encouraged to take AP classes or college level classes. This would help students achieve credits earlier.

Small school/less to choose from...education-wise. No foreign languages except distant learning. No drivers' training though a license can be obtained at 14. Share a lot of space with elementary and middle school students. School spirit is great though...and team players are to be congratulated due to the distance traveled to play.
