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.

Collingswood High School has provided me with a lot of resources to continue with schooling after graduating. Although the school has had its bad moments, the good moments that I have spent at this school is what will remain with me forever.

My experience with CHS has been very good. As it is in a small town, the school feels like a community. Everyone here is very friendly and inclusive of everyone. I think the majority of teachers that work here are very dedicated and do a great job teaching their classes. My favorite part about my high school are the activities that they offer. A lot of clubs and sports are available for students that have all sorts of interest whether it's playing a sport, making art, or volunteering. Students are even allowed to create their own clubs as well, the student body here is very involved in the school community. One thing that I don't like about my school is that the lunch periods are only about twenty-five minutes. I feel that they should be longer so students can have time to eat all of their lunch and socialize with friends as well. Although this would be the only change that I'd make to the school, I think all around CHS is a great school that's full of great people.

Their is a lack of encouragement for certain students to succeed and the administration strugels to connect with the students to talk about their futures.

I do think the school falls short in addressing the level gaps between Collingswood students and students from the...

My child has been attending Collingswood HS for 3 years and we have had an amazing experience. The teachers are effective and the entire staff is so caring and compassionate, especially during this very difficult time. My child has excelled and flourish during his time at CHS.

I have been very happy with Collingswood high school. It's small town atmosphere and caring teachers have made a real difference at this school. As a teacher myself, there is a real sense of community and unity among the faculty. They really care about the kids. I cannot say that for schools in the...

There has been a strong push from parents (who don't even have children in the HS) to write great reviews for Collingswood High School. As a parent with a child in the HS, I can tell you we have so many issues. The teachers are great and this is no reflection on them. We are a receiving school for o...
