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 loved every part of Patrick County High School throughout my years here. I've found many friends and life-long relationships. The best part about Patrick County is the teachers and staff. They make patrick county the best school. So many teachers have made my experience better at this school. The worst part about this is school is only having 4 classes so class periods are very long, it would be nice to have maybe 6-7 periods to have more clubs/classes to sign up for to prepare for college.

The experience is awesome. Majority of the staff are kind and interact with the students by helping them when they need it. Patrick County is where students and teachers build families and memories forever. The teachers become your friends and are there to help you even if you are not in their class. They share their experiences about college to seniors to make the college experience better.

Pretty average. Some of the teachers are good, but I don't particularly care for the way some of the administration is handled.

The bullying and discrimination are through the roof. If you find your group with your type of friends, you'll be fine. Some teachers are extremely annoying and unbearable, but some teachers absolutely rock your world. it's all about who you associate with.
