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 with Perryville Highschool has been very back and forth. I've always excelled in classes and worked hard to achieve goals which the teachers do encourage you to do. However it's not the best school in the county and there are definitely things that could be improved .

As an early college student I attended Perryville High and enjoyed my four years of high school. I have recently recieved my associates degree in general studies and will soon recieve my high school diploma. I entirely believe that the staff of perryville highschool made my highschool experience more enjoyable, and helped to shape my into the person that I am today.
