high schools?
hello all.
was hoping for some help with the high schools in the Tri-Cities area as well as others.
i have looked on great schools and other sites and none seem to agree with each other. anyway i was hoping you could give your personal opinion on the schools in the area was thinking of the following counties (hawkins,sullivan,washington,and greene ) how would you list them from great to bad
thanks for your help....

Greene County/Greeneville City high schools are okay, not as good as Washington/Johnson City or Sullivan/Kingsport (though Greeneville High [city] likely outranks some Sullivan County schools).
As far as within the county itself, Greeneville High is the best/biggest, though you'll have to pay enrollment if you live outside the city borders. Next, South Greene and Chuckey-Doak are about even, with West and North Greene rounding out the bottom-tier.
