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.

I was an athlete at Tharptown High School and I very much enjoyed the atmosphere surrounding athletics. I also enjoyed my teachers and the office staff. I think the only changes that should be made are the food but it's not up to the lunch ladies it's up to the Board of Education and standards set by the federal government.

Teachers are nice they only give us a lot of work to help us out in later life and I would definitely change the lunch food and make a bigger hallway
