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.

My school is average; there's nothing particularly special about it. I've had conflicts with some teachers, but the counselors are quick to address issues like these. I would probably change the overall atmosphere of the school since it feels a little depressing. However, I really like most of my teachers; they are very understanding and effective at teaching.

Both my children attended Bogota HS. The Staff and Admin are incredibly dedicated to each and every student. They have tons of clubs and activities if sports is not your thing. The Superintendent is readily available for a call or email. He responds very quickly and address and questions and concerns. The school keeps parents informed on multiple platforms.

Bogota High school is a very diverse and accepting environment. The teachers care so much about their students, always putting in the best effort to help. The school is very small, averaging about eighty students per grade, so everyone grew up very close. Overall, it is a good school that wants the best for all the students there.

Teachers need to be trained on how to use different teaching techniques with students who have special needs.

I graduated in 2008 from Bogota high it's very easy to cut class there and to get away with stuff. No security there. Work is easy. Teachers can be mean and get away with it. Most kids are encouraged to just attend Bergen instead of aspiring for anything more. Not enough extracurricular activities f...

Small school-teachers are fickle and show favoritism towards certain kids. Unusual grading system, kids seem behind the national average academically. Homework is easy and very little. What is given is not graded properly. They basically pass kids along just to get them out of the grade. Rules are s...
