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.

Going to Anson High School, is honestly nothing but drama left and right and academics is terrible. We have teachers that can barely speak English, students who hate to behave correctly, even coming tp school intoxicated and high. Everyone don't get equal education cause it seem that they help the students who are already up there instead of the students who are way below.

I wish I had the opportunity to attend Anson High prior to the end of my 11th grade year. Due to unforeseen circumstances I transferred during the end my 11th grade year. I feel like I would have had a greater opportunity to do better on my academics to help pay to further my education. I have had an amazing opportunity to form friendships and learn how to look up to teachers that I have formed a bond with. I will definitely miss seeing them and plan to keep in touch once I graduate high school.

They have a very good program where they connect with the local community college and kids have the opportunity to do college classes while in high school. They also give everyone their own laptops to use. I would like to see the rules changed a little. It is like the teachers are scared to do things and the administration is quick to get rid of a problem instead of trying to solve it.

The disappoint in this school does not even grant it 1 star but that is the lowest score I could give it. Resort to this high school as a last resort, the environment is less than friendly, the education that is being taught is less than mediocre, the diversity in curriculum and people and minimum....

I am so disappointed in this school. I graduated from this high school and it seems to have hit rock bottom. The leadership at this school is horrible. The kids feel as though they are in prison! If my child could quit school right now and get away with it, he would. I don't think any of the teacher...
