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.

As a senior who joined last year as a junior, it was initially challenging for me to make friends since I was new to the school. The transition was tough, and I often felt out of place. However, the easiest part was overcoming these social hurdles and focusing on my academics. By dedicating myself to my studies, I was able to excel academically, which gave me a sense of accomplishment and helped me build confidence.

My overall experience with southern nash high school is that the staff and faculty there are always so welcoming and supportive. The sports teams and clubs are absolutely amazing and fun to be apart of. Not only do you get a learning experience but you build friendships and relationships with students, coaches and teachers that make you want to work harder in school.

My time at Southern Nash High School has been amazing. I have grown so much as a young adult here. I have learned about so many things and was able to learn about different people. The worst part of my experience has been the food, it is not very tasteful to me. I would not like to change anything about Southern Nash High School.
