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 part of Coldwater high school was the community between the students who took AP classes. Many AP students were the same exact people, so it was easy to build a community with each other. Every other part about this high school is pretty mediocre, and the only way you can make a name out of yourself here is if your parents have money.

CHS has good college prep through the ability to take AP classes and Kellogg Community College classes. The staff is supportive and the school has a diverse community. However, the school does little to fund the arts and prepare students for the SAT.

Coldwater High School is meh. The clubs they have aren't that advanced/complex and don't push people to do more. They are more focused on academics and sports than art, and even those areas are limited in receiving appreciation. The school dances are boring as well. I like how there are many opportunities for those without a lot of money. Also, many opportunities to earn community service (you do have to look for it though).
