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.

Teachers, admin and support staff are the best. They all love and support students. This is one of many amazing schools in Henry County.

Completely ghastly what certain teachers have been saying to students calling them lazy and untrustworthy. I personally believe Harrelson School to be a child detention center rather than a place of education and friendship. 2/10

awesomes teachers, assistant principal, and staff. Principal needs to be more friendly when things are open to public. Ms.Taylor and Ms.Fridy always took time to speak whether they knew you or not.
