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.

The school is relatively subpar academically, according to the majority of metrics I've actively scrolled. Being a student within the school, I can unfortunately confirm this; the academics are pretty unengaging.

My overall experience can be summarized with "meh". Bladensburg High school is fun sometimes, and feels like there is nothing specifically special about the school.

This school was absolutely horrible. My son had a talk with me and said that the teachers aren’t teaching anything. He even went as far as to tell that they made him want to die.

I moved to another county just to get my daughter out of that school . The environment is not conducive to healthy learning. My daughter was afraid everyday to go to school. The faculty that I met were unprofessional and lacked care and concern for the students. I don't like how the kids are treated...
