Nelson County High School Ratings & Reviews
Posted February 28, 2012Submitted by a student
I spent my freshman year at Nelson County High School, but recently decided to homeschool instead. I have to say, the other kids are extremely nice and there is no bullying whatsoever, but academics leave a lot to be desired. As a gifted student, I didn't feel challenged at all. Most of the other kids didn't have a lot of ambition and complained about the (small) amount of schoolwork we had to do. However, because I was willing to work hard I always had time to finish all my homework in class (I literally NEVER brought work home), I usually found myself with over 45 minutes of class where I was sitting at my desk doing absolutely nothing. I don't know why the other reviews are so great for people who've transferred here, perhaps the entire national standard for education is low? But all I have to say is that I don't know how the current students are going to get through college when the pace they will have been used to in high school is so slow.

GreatSchools Ratings are based on student performance on state tests, progress over time, and college readiness, in addition to how effectively schools serve students from different racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average). Ratings and reviews help parents compare schools. We encourage parents to also visit schools, ask questions, learn about programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process. Data provided by © 2025. All rights reserved.
