Newton County High School

NCHS has great teachers, they are very involved in each child's learning.

This is one of the best schools in mississippi. The teachers are great, safty is very important to me and this school rates a 5. The quality of the staff, great. I'm proud to have a child in this school.

I was really dissatisfied with this school! My children always had a problem with the teahers and the staff always acted as if they didnt't care. They are rude, uncaring, and they need better teachers!!!

I have attended many schools throughout my life; however, Newton County High School was by far the best. It had a more personal feeling that other schools lacked. The teachers wanted to be involved in your life to offer guidance in times of desperation. I received a very high level of education that has helped me transfer into the college life without any hassle.

NCHS is lacking when it comes to fairness among students. The majority of the faculty tend to think its all about them and not the students. They need to keep in mind that the school is there for educating the students and not for their personal benefit. Also, there's far too much gossiping among the faculty.

This school does not have a PTO (for the High School) and the office personnel are not very friendly or helpful. The message is sent that the parents and their contributions, other than monetary, are not welcome. Also, a few teachers probably should have retired a long time ago since it is clear they are not happy in their jobs and it is reflected in their behavior toward students.

I think my child gained a very valuable education at NCHS. They loved it there. All the teachers seemed to care about the children and make sure that they learned what was being taught.
