This school has a very good education. Plus the kids are very nice and smart there. The students arent misbehaved and the teachers DO care. And so does the principal. This is coming from a former student and a mother of 3.

Only one word can describe this terrible place. That one word is Homophobic. I recommend not to go there if you are part of the LGBT or PFLAG community. I'm lucky I got out of there because no one seemed to care. The teachers, staff members and principal did nothing to the harassers.

I attended the middle school and it was the worst experience of my entire life. The principle did not seem to care about the students, appeared the focus was all business - not students. Glad to be in high school now - Greeneville HS has been very good.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Tennessee used the Gateway/End-of-Course (EOC) exams to test high school students in language arts, math, science, and social studies upon completion of relevant courses. Students must pass the algebra I, English II, and biology I tests, called the Gateway exams, in order to graduate. This year, Tennessee introduced two new exams in algebra II and English III, and those results are included on the GreatSchools profile as well. The Gateway/EOC exams are standards-based tests that measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of Tennessee. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
