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 enjoyed how the teachers at United South Central were always there for the students whenever questions were asked. If there was one thing that I could change about USC, it would be that the school could use more diversity and variety in the people. USC is a school that does not have Clicks, there are only students that are looking to make friends no matter what background the students has.

Most extracuricular activities we have are sports. Our athletic program is pretty good considering that we are a small school.
