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 overall at Poteau has not been bad. Now saying that doesn't mean that its been the best either. I think the school could for sure use its changes to be better but so do many other schools.

High school has been a wonderful experience for me. I have done a lot since my freshman year and I grew from it. I made so many friends and a lot of the younger classmates look up to me, I feel honored by that. I would like to push myself past my limits and make goals to see how much I can achieve.

Poteau overall is ok but they care to much about football and it needs to change. Basically if you play football you can get away with anything like doing drugs, bullying kids
