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 biggest part of Pisgah High I enjoyed the most was the atmosphere. All of staff had this "I'm here to help" attitude regardless of what the students did or what they were doing. Also the school is constantly being updated and renovated to stay up-to-date with current teaching standards and practices as well as constantly trying out different teaching methods to help each student find the best way to receive their education.
