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.

The best parts of my High School included the clubs and activities that my school provided and planned. The worst parts of my High School experience was the amount of activities that were based off of popularity instead of the people who actually did good and put in the most amount of work. In Student Council getting elected as an officer was based off of popularity instead of who could fulfill the officer requirements to the best of their abilities.

I love Cleveland High School as it has prepared me well for my future with college and more. The teachers are amazing and allow for a relationship with them which then correlates to wanting to go to class. The school isn't perfect because it's still a high school with some trouble makers but I don't think any other school around me could do it like they did.

I really enjoyed going to Cleveland High School. It gave me some many opportunities to compete in the sport that I love while also getting a good education and having many opportunities to complete high school and college level classes. These classes gave me an upper hand when applying to colleges and taught me so much before living on my own now.

Cleveland was a great school. People will say bad things about the dress code, which is partially true— girls will often get in trouble more than men do for wearing shirts with inappropriate messages or sagging pants. The principal often gives verbal warnings about them equally but the women’s viola...

The school is very picky about it's new dress code and although it's a county dress code they still pick and choose when to use the dress code. For example our DRESS CODE says that we must not show skin from our chest to mid thigh, though teachers say they won't check length. However, I have almost...

For the most part this school is fine exept for their dress code policies and enforcement. The staff scrutinize the females for dress code violations that are borderline ridiculous. This teachs young women that it is their reaponsibility to make sure they aren't a 'distraction' to male students and...
