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 steinmetz was good, i'm in the IB program which had heavily influenced me in doing the right choices at steinmetz, with the people I surround myself with. The best part of my experience at steinmetz was the people in my class, were all close. There wasn't really a worst part at steinmetz. I would like the environment to change like I feel the students at steinmetz don't really care about high school till the last minute which in many cases for them it's too late.

The best experience having when being in this school is not having any regrets on coming. Glad to have met the people I did met & regardless how our path ended, I will always cherish the memories and moments when we didn't have to worry about a thing but to just laugh, cry, and best of all meeting the people & teachers that had left an impact on me & will always remember that. There is no such as thing as "bad" as long as you don't make it into that situation. Always surround yourself with people that will help you, people that have your best interest, do what you want to do in life & be who you want to be... always have that as your mindset until you get where you want to be in life.

It's a okay school I will say IB was a very challenging course there at Steinmetz but the teachers in IB made it a good learning process wise but I can't say the same for regular classes since I have not seen them. However there is a lot of violence and drug abuse in Steinmetz.

This school is above the state average in key measures of college and career readiness.Even at schools with strong college and career readiness, there may be students who are not getting the opportunities they need to succeed.
