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.

I've been going to John Glenn since I was a Freshman and in my opinion it's a great school. While my grades have never been the best the teachers there have always tried their best to help me. One of the only problems I've had at John Glenn is with some of the policies they have there, the policies are simply ones I just don't agree with but they're reasonable to have so I can't be too mad.

My experience at John Glenn high school has been great the moment I started my first day here. I came here as a freshman and have stayed the whole four years and I still love it. They are on top of the game and ready for anything. They show that they care greatly about all of their students and do not discriminate. The sports and programs are amazing and they communicate and appreciate all of the kids. I'm glad I went to John Glenn high school. It's definitely one of my best choices and I don't regret it. Everyone at this school is amazing especially the teachers. I think everyone should come here to experience what high school is supposed to be like and have an amazing time like I did.

The best parts about John Glenn High School are the students and teachers who make going to school every day worthwhile. I have had almost no bad experiences there and the ones I have experienced are minor. One thing I would like to see change at this school is to offer more classes that allow students to explore careers and open up career center for all grades.

I literally begged my mother to transfer me to a different school because the kids were horrible and the teachers were worse. I had one amazing teacher there but the rest treated me as less than. It's something that will stick with me for the rest of my life. Don't let your children experience that.
