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.

Tift county high school is okay but there is little emphasis on college readiness and many advanced classes do not have enough interest to make. There are frequent fights and vapid vaping and smoking. Due to these issues administrators are busy addressing behavioral problems and not helping offer opportunities for top students to appeal to schools outside of our small town.

This high school provides a typical educational experience, offering a diverse range of classes and extracurricular activities. The faculty members are dedicated to supporting students' academic and personal growth. The facilities are adequate, although some may be in need of modernization. Overall, it's a decent institution for students seeking a traditional high school experience.
