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 Barnwell High thus far has been a really good experience . I have no complaints about the way things are done at this school . Everything done here is done for the best interest of their students. The teachers here are amazing , I haven't had not one bad teacher. When it comes to showing school spirit in sports , this school is top tier at doing pep rallies. Considering that we are still in a pandemic a lot of things have changed at school. Barnwell High has did their best to help their students adapt to change and keep us as safe as possible during the pandemic. Virtual and hybrid learning was an option last year for students who did not feel comfortable returning to school mid- pandemic. I was a student who participated in full time virtual learning . This year I returned to in school learning .Upon my return , I did notice the schools precautions to control the spread of the virus but , I think the school should consider reopening the virtual option.

I like my school but the food is kind of bad. We need more or two more min between classes. Our technology is great as is our science and math departments!

I absolutely loved my time at Barnwell high school. The teachers are amazing and the principle knows all the students by name and makes sure to say it right and interact with us every chance he gets. This is a school who really takes care of its students in any way they can.
