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.

The worst part about Cherokee Trail High School is the school security is focusing on the wrong things. They are more worried about parking passes and students parking in the parking lot with/without a parking pass than they are worried about students entering the building. The best part of Cherokee Trail High School is the amount of resources available to students.

I was a student at this school. For most of my high school career, I struggled academically and mentally. I certainly was not a delinquent, yet I was lumped into those group of students, being deemed undeserving of attention or care. Because I am a minority, I was not treated with the same respect t...
