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.

Colts Neck High School has provided me with a solid experience thus far. Although I have had encounters with bullying, the faculty was on top of it. My guidance counselor is my favorite person, and he has helped me through everything. I would like for the rigor of AP classes to increase, and be more on top of cheating. My grades seem low compared to others in my class due to the academic dishonesty of others, and it pains me to see how it affects me in my college search. Other than that, the school is great and a lovely place to be.

During my time at this highschool, I have had a mostly positive experience. In addition, most of the staff is willing to help you with the course work in class or if you are having trouble understanding concepts.
