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.

We could probably use more emphasis on simple reading and writing tactics. Even things such as simple grammar rules would be very helpful in allowing the students here to excel.

Avon High School has opportunities for all students to be involved and educated at a high level. The amount of work the staff, parents, coaches, and student put into their education and our community shows. It is growing tremendously fast for this reason. All of our schools are under construction to support and be the best we can be.

I went to this high school for all 4 years, while I was there, I participated in the cheer team. The school does a good job at having lots of sports activities as well as clubs. The school does a great job at integrating all the different types of students into the school environment. The administration has a problem of "buddying up" with the well known kids in school, usually being involved in sports. This can cause major problems when there is conflict between these students and others.

I honestly had so much fun in high school. The teachers were nice and always ready to help and the students, at least the ones I interacted with during my time here, were respectful to some extent and timely.

The schools I've been to were terrible. Sometimes nobody did anything about bullying. I'll admit some schools are good but the high school is terrible.
