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 Lavergne High School has been interesting, to say the least. When I started high school, covid had started to become rampant therefore I was distance learning my freshman year. It was a struggle, to say the least, but my teachers did their best to help us. Some of my best times were with teachers who genuinely cared about us and our education.

My son loves it and wouldn't go anywhere else. The principal is rough and needs to respect the teacher...
