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.

What I like about South Johnston is that I made a lot of friends who are very supporting. South Johnston is a very great school but if you want more freedom then this school is not for you. I wish we had more freedom for instance with like ours phones I can get my work done and be on my phone at the same time I don't feel like everybody should be punished.

My school goes above and beyond. Mr. Price is by far the best principal I have ever had. he always makes the students feel welcomed and accepted. I love the POWER schedule and all the time we have to study and catch up on whatever we need to or just hang out with friends after all the work is done....
