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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

The environment of Buffalo High School was a great experience for me and I regard my time there as a good learning and relationship growth. Teachers were welcoming and listened to students for the most part, there were a few ones I would consider ill-fitted, but overall I had a good relationship with the teachers and faculty.

This school is a lot to take in at first because it is so big, but once you grow up in it. it starts to look small. The community here is spread out and we have the basic drama of school fights and people smoking in the bathroom, but I do think this school is the best around us. The music program shines through this school even when the school never gives the funding for it. It favors sports over everything else making other clubs pay out of pocket for something the school would have no problem paying. the people here are nice enough to get along with. the principal is probably the best thing here for the school. he keeps the school together and he should get more credit for that. overall I enjoyed this school and the people here so I would give it 4 stars out of 5.

As a parent of two BHS graduates, I can say they both had the best experience possible. They constantly felt supported by their counselor, administrator, teachers and coaches. My husband and I have so much respect for all the staff that paved the way for their futures.
Buffalo High School is an excellent school that cares about its students deeply. My oldest children graduated with 30+ college credits each, were able to attend the university of their choice, and receive significant academic aid because of the hard working staff at BHS. Also, my children have parti...
