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.

Talkington has a wonderful staff of teachers who actually care about each individual student's success. They are always working their hardest to prepare all the students for college.

Talkington is an amazing preparatory school and college readiness school. It excels in the academic and fine art department. We have a brand new auditorium and fine arts wing, but the rest of the school is a little older. The only big issue is the size of the school and lack of funding for other extracurriculars and outside of school activities besides academic and fine arts. The sports department is also very underfunded, as we have 1 small sized gym and no track. Other than that Talkington is a very safe space and I love it there.

I love how everyone is so close in the school since we are a pretty small school. The teachers have great relationships with the student and the students are basically all like family.

I can go back to teachers i’ve had a say hi and just talk to them. I transferred to Talkington in 2020....
