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.

Overall, Arlington High School is a great school. The school spirit is through the roof, our sports teams are amazing, and our band and choir are top-tier. I would not change my experience at AHS for the world. I am forever thankful that I have been able to attend this institution and will remember it with fondness.

There is a large variety of classes and activities to participate in. School spirit is very high with a lot of support given to extracurriculars and sports. However, due to the high population the ability to be enrolled in preferred classes is getting harder, and requests to change classes due to personal issues are not granted without effort by guardians.

Transferred to this school during my Senior year of high school and was extremely disappointed. This school is as shallow as they come, they're a typical jock school. They only care about their athletic programs and don't concern themselves with the actual quality of the education they provide. The...

One of the highest funded schools, yet their pupils fail basic exams for mathematics, chemistry, physics. Is that a new "low" for science or what? But surely enough, children's PE scores are very high. Had to move out of this place simply because of the schools. Disgusting experience. The place we r...
