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.

My experience at South Knox has its good moments and bad moments. At South Knox I run Cross Country and Track and have been doing that for all 4 years. My coach, Matt Toothman, knows what he talks about and has developed me into the runner I am today. By education standards, every year I get a higher gpa. Currently, I have a 3.7 or 3.8 gpa and got accepted into National Honors Society and Vincennes University. All the teachers that I have encountered here are super nice but some of them do not know how to teach in which I would not know how to do half of the stuff that is on the homework but I come through with a good grade.

I have no bad things to say about this school because the faculty, staff, and students are the type of people we all strive to be.

South Knox Middle/High School is a school made up of around 550 students in a rural area. Although it maybe small the staff within is more than helpful. They will do anything to help you be successful.
