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 teachers all throughout my four years have been kind and wanting the best for their students. I feel that the school prepared me for college in many ways by providing resources and encouraging extracurriculars of all types.

One thing I love about Canon Mac is all of the opportunities I have. We have access to so much technology and resources. I almost went to Washington High School, which is not nearly as good as Canon Mac. I wouldn't be where I am today if it were for this school district. One thing that I'm not a fan of at my school is the kids. We are a pretty privileged school district, and with opportunities come spoiled kids. Some of the meanest people I have met at my school. They are not accepting at all and extremely judgmental. The teachers are nice, but not always the best at teaching.

I have been a student at Canon-McMillian Senior High School for almost a full four years and I will only leave with positives towards the school. Our teachers are extremely educated, our administration cares about how their students view certain decisions, and our school lunches have stepped up their game!! It will be an honor to become a Canon Mac Alumni.

We didn’t have a very pleasant experience with this school we decided to home school because we didn’t have enough money to be a part of the crowd.

Well below average. This is an environment that harbours hatred and polarizes children's thoughts. They learn to stop thinking critically and take information at face value, regardless of the source. Unlike what high school is designed to do, Canon-McMillan High School actually makes its students le...
