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.

Although Boca High is overall a great school for academics and diversity, I believe the quality of certain facilities and teaching methods could be improved.

The best part about Boca Raton Community High School was the teachers I had they were super nice, helpful, encouraging, and wise.The worst part however was the bathrooms.They were never cleaned, often had whole sinks, toilets,soap dispensers,and paper towels missing from the bathroom and has been suspectable to flooding at least 4 times during my time in Boca Raton Community High School.

It's with a great degree of regret that my last child is attending as what made this school great diminishes. Kindness, good listening, mutuality, maturity, wisdom and did I write kindness? evaporate under a harsh new administration marked by mediocrity. Oh for tge good old days!
