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 high school is very strict but a for a good reason. We could use more parent and student involvement when it comes to activities and testing such as the ACT. Sports and all after school activities are amazing and very fun to be apart of. Overall not a bad school but could use some improvement in certain areas.

I love my school I have learned so much. The counselors are so helpful with preparing you for college. I had no plan and they gave me one! I love my school.

Both Clay Chalkville Middle & Clay Chalkville High is by far the worst schools I’ve ever encountered. Times have really changed over the past years and the schools are horrible now. It’s sad to say but they have really torn that school down.

Great School Great Teachers! However I'v been sending my children to the Chalkville school system since 1993 my last child graduate this year in 2017 and I must say the school has changed and I can't say for the best. I'm just glad it's over.
