If there were a 0 stars rating, I would give it to this school. I am appalled at the educational quality of the school. My child is in all of the highest classes, is in the top 10% of the class from a GPA perspective, but can not write a decent essay or score above the 50th percentile in English or 30th percentile in math on college entrance exams, even though he qualified to take a dual enrollment math class at a community college, where he earned a "C". He has taken them several times. Therefore, he can not qualify for the Zel Miller scholarship. My child does not drink, take drugs or get into any trouble. This is simply a school failing its most motivated students. It's sad.

Honestly, i hated the experience, but the school was okay. Mostly focused on sports, though... some teachers even went so far as to let the atheletes bribe them for good grades so the could play.

North Murray High School is alright. We have problems with a lot of fights, tobacco, drugs, and PDA. The teachers are more better at gossiping than teaching. Our football team likes to cuss toward people in the stands. And we have a very high rate of kids not graduating on time or at all. Once your in Murray County you ain't ever getting out.
