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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Jefferson City High School which was founded on 22nd January, 1964. It's one of it's kind in the Jefferson City School District. I would personally say my worst experience is when I transferred to the school. Settling in a new environment became a problem for me. That period was really tough for me. Nevertheless my best period came not long after I settled in; it was when my teammates cheered me on after I scored my first goal for the team.

I find that there is a lack of college preparation, and the process is very independent. The teachers are often very supportive and helpful.
