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.

Since the moment I moved to the Lenoir City School system my social expresses have risen. Not only did I get more social, I got more diverse. More then most are here with open arms,a dn will help you when you get down. I do not know one student that does not have at least one teacher they do not go to when something goes wrong in their life. The staff in the system makes us feel safe and as one of their own. This has been one of the better schools I have ever attended.

I transferred here junior year, and honestly the place was shabby at best. The guidance counsellor lied to me about the credits I would need and they have like two AP classes. Their music program is worse than a joke, and I ate Ramen every day instead of the food they served. This place has no drip. 0 stars.

My four years at Lenoir City High School have been an overall great experience. The administration is very kind and always ready to help. I feel like I have gotten a good education and am truly learning a lot in each of my classes. I would that much would need changed, but maybe a bit more assistance with college related concerns or questions.

I just graduated from LC, and I could not have had a better high school experience. I never felt unsafe or unwelcome. Every student in the school as a teacher or administration member that they relate to and can talk to. Lenoir City teaches its students to love their community and love their fellow...
