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.

Andress is a good school with good teachers and students. Of course it's not perfect and it has minor flaws.

Andress High School is a place filled with diversity and adversity as well. This school will make you understand and be open minded to people that aren't like you.

I graduated in 2000 and was involved in both band and softball, and now my son is enrolled there and is involved in both band and ROTC and I love the fact that he's seen nothing but positivity there as well did I before graduation.
