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.

Starks High School was an amazing part of my life. It was small, sure, but it's like one big family of students who help one another and amazing teachers who just keep getting better over the years.

I just moved back home to Louisiana last year from Tennessee. My babies have not ever had a happy medium with their school experience they have hated the thought of school they was miserable it was a screaming crying fit they dreaded school there until now they love it Starks has seriously changed my babies lives and mine too. They are wonderful with kids or I know they have seriously changed mines outlook they love it and it's different for them. So if u ask me Starks High School is amazing the teachers are a blessing the staff are all friendly and helpful. I love it here I don't wanna be anywhere else.

The school is very good for the location all though it is in rural Louisiana and that of its self could cause issues but the staff is of upmost quality the diversity of the school is very low but that is to be expected of the area the education of the school is relatively ok although it could be better however because of the lack of funding it is to be expected.
I love that my granddaughter went here I love this school and so does my granddaughter everyone at this school is friendly and helpful it's way better than Vinton
