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 like how our administration reconstructed our acedemic system to where we are actually absorbing and learning information to earn the grade we receive. My school can improve on being a more positive environment.

I am currently a Sophomore at North Fayette High School and I believe that the Staff, Administration, and Teachers at North Fayette High do not set you up for success at College. In College, you are only allowed one chance to pass a test at North Fayette you are allowed to take a test as many times as you want. This I believe sets you up for poor studying skills, that you would need in College. However, North Fayette does score in the ninety-five percentile for reading and math for both genders.

North Fayette is good, small town school, most of the teachers care about you. Typically there is 25-30 students per class. We have quiet a few extra curricular activities to chose from. Class size is roughly 100 students per grade, you have the opportunity to know all of your classmates.
