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 experience at Cedar Grove High School was very exciting and positive. Being surrounded by all good people. I also took part in 3 sports; softball, basketball, and volleyball.

One thing that I would change would be to have more activities for the students to do as a whole.

Pros: The small size is incredible, I knew everyone in my grade (and pretty much every other grade) and all of the staff even those who I did not have classes with. It made the school feel safe and homey. The superintendent (the principal when I was there) clearly wants to improve the school and has...

The school lacks diversity, and, along with the town as a whole, is comprised of extremely conservative views among students as well as some staff.
