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.

Star City School District is said to have a zero tolerance policy for bullying. Although, the school has LOTS of bullying within the school. Even the teachers bully other teachers. Sports are way over rated compared to the academics. If you aren't in a sport, primarily football or cheerleading then you are pretty much nonexistent.

The teachers here are amazing and connect with students very well. The learning environment is great and allows me to learn the best I can and prepare me for the real world.

I like how welcoming the counselor was and easy to talk to. However, the front office could be nicer. We all have bad days no need to take it out on the kids.

I wish I had some more qualified, responsible teachers who weren't extremely biased. The staff here is a joke. It...

I have very mixed feelings about Star City. My children have all gone to school there and two are successful, One is not. There are many fine teachers there and then there are some who just don;t care. One is late everyday and gives beer parties for the students, but nothing is said to her. There ar...
