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.

Marshall County High School is an amazing school to attend. The faculty and staff do an excellent job of making everyone feel comfortable and at home. The four years I spent there were the best of my life and I have made lifelong friendships because of MCHS.

Marshall is a small county where almost everyone knows everyone. This school has its benefits where I can take college classes to get a head start and be college ready. Although I may not love my school, I can't imagine myself anywhere else.

This school provides good preparation for college, not only with academic, but with the vast amount of electives and vocational classes. It's amazing to be able to expand your interest through classes some schools don't even offer. Marshall County High School has helped me form my decision on a career and helped push me to achieve it.

Didn't not help when I was being bullied. They did not discipline the other student. And one teacher would bully me and and my friends.
