GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

It's great school with many opportunities for early college, or certifications in careers like phlebotomy, welding, nursing, cosmetology, and so many more. We are rich in culture and our school district is always looking for ways to improve student and parent life.

Teachers were understanding and the management of the school was overall good. However, I would have liked that some of the counselors would give the same amount of attention to every student.

PSJA Memorial has been a school dedicated in encouraging students to become better and surpass their own expectations. The teacher are very helpful and have learned how to simplify and explain any subject so that all students can understand and learn. The school lunch and breakfast is very good majority of the kids eat and take their lunch home.
