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 love Searcy High School in all honesty. The staff reaches out and truly tries to connect with their students and encourage them. Students at Searcy actively participate because of the wonderful community our school has built. Teachers go out of their way to help students with assignments or answering questions and coaches are willing to stay later to practice with you.

My overall experience with Searcy High School has not been good or bad, I don't get into trouble or anything, but I have recently lost credit for a class and was not informed that I lost credit until summer started, and the administration didn't even try to give me a warning or send me to summer school. They said it was due to my absence in my first period class, but I was only absent six or seven times and they have counted me absent due to the fact that I was late by ten minutes and I feel like if that is the case then why should I show up for class if I'm getting counted absent every time I'm a little late. I want them to approve on actually trying to help their students not to loose their credit instead of taking it away from them.

This school sucks. I found a clump of cockroaches in a corner, rats in the ceiling. And they put all of the money they have into sports and not things that matter like pest control, water quality, and the well being of the actual school building. They built a whole new arena that costed millions, ev...
