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.

Woodford County High School is a great place to learn, make new friends, and get ready for life after high school. Once the new high school is finished (under construction at the moment), then facilities will become a lot nicer. But as for now, there are specialized departments such as a media/broadcast room, band room, and a full shop and greenhouse.

My high school experience has been very good. The teachers have been great, the classes have been great, and they have good food.

I moved to Woodford County half way through my 8th grade year. I was terrified as I was moving from a small school of around 400 people Kindergarten to 12th grade, and Woodford County has about 300 per grade. The atmosphere and family is unmatchable. The only negative I can say is the infrastructure of the high school itself. It is quite old and in desperate need of renovation. With that aside, the people, the community, the spirit, and the teachers make me proud to be a Yellowjacket.

This school could really use $5000 dollars, I would hope that if they won it they would use it to improve the school. It is a very old school that needs some work. They really need a new high school in this town but it hasn't happened yet and from what I hear it wont for a while. The kids here deser...
