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.

I really like mainland high school and the people I've been able to meet at mainland starting from my teachers I've been able to learn from many teachers for example my physics teacher my world history teacher these two teachers have really given me different perspectives on their subjects they teach I really enjoy the environment of students and learning that happening at mainland I only dislike the fact that certain subjects are difficult for me to excel in them because of the teachers, math in particular ever since I became a high schooler math has all of a sudden became a hard subject and difficult to understand some of that may be because of the difficulty I have understanding what the teacher is teaching and sometimes having a hard time grasping what the teacher is trying to teach but apart from my academic experience, sports have really been exciting for me as a student athlete who is apart of track and soccer,mainland overall is a great school I would recommend people going to

It's a great school, some of the best parts is the sports and the activities the school does. The worse parts in the drama in the school.

Mainland is a place with lots of diversity but it has places it can improve. Lots of threats are made and they cause fear in students they need a better check in procedure. The food isn't very good. The teachers are good but some can improve.

During my time at Mainland High School, (2015- 2019) the experience was overall great. Mainland was full of opportunities. I was in the band and it gave me a lot of fond memories. I made some friends and showed our hard work under the Friday night lights. I got to take challenging AP classes that I...
