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 overall experience with Greely High School has been relatively stable. The community the school is based in is everything a parent could wish for, for their kids and their community and environment. We live in a safe and friendly environment, and everybody is always so welcoming here, speaking as a minority myself. The only bad thing I can note is that living prices have gone up, but only because many people have already recognized the potential of living here.

Absolutely awful. The teachers and kids are jerks. The parents are horrible. The culture is toxic. The academics are pretentious. The math department is horrible. The sports aren't fun at all. Everything is hyper competitive. Nobody is nice. Everyone is pretentious and fake. Has everyone just forgotten about the nazi salute photo? When I got to college it was nothing like I thought it was going to be.

He has been excited for challenging classes so far and is excited for the future. The school has offered nothing but positive influences...

Great schools, great community! There is a real focus on kids in the community and it is a great, wholesome place to live. Parents are very involved in the schools. Many teachers even live in the community.

Good for a public school system. Maine is a great place for families and for children to grow up free of many of the dangers and temtations of life in more urban areas. Cumberland is one of the strongest communities, in terms of economics, education levels and proximity to amenities, in Maine. There...

I graduated from Greely last year. For me, there were a lot of positives, but also a few negatives. The administration here has done some immensely silly things, and the head of the board needs a change of faces. There are some great facilities here, and the level of academic rigor is fairly unparal...
