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.

Hello l am Berda Thomas Halie Hopson Grandmother..I moved from Marion Arkansas to Tunica Mississippi on July 3rd 2021 to take care of Halie and her other 2 siblings Jaliyah and courtnee Hopson because their Mother Quinteena Hopson passed away August 16th 2021 from COVID-19..that was the worst day of all of our lives..but l thank GOD all the Girls are Honor Roll students. Here at Tunica Elementary and Tunica High School the students have to take accessment placements test to pass to the next grade level so lm very impressed with Rosa Fort school performance. The worst experience other parents and l have experienced is paying for sports uniforms a lot of kids cant afford to buy the things they need to pay for .l also disagree that the seniors have to pay for their cap and gown. So winning this $1000 scholarship will really help Halie out financially entering into college. The best experience l have had since l moved to tunica is watching the community support in all school activities.

Rosa Fort has some serious issues, They suspend these children for anything just to keep from having to handle school issues. When I was in school they new how to discipline and talk to us. Now they call the parent for everything when they in your care you should be able to care for them. They even...
