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 experience with Socorro High School was good. I had some bad days but that is normal. There are some ups and down moments. Theres some weird and awkward moments too. That is what life experience is . I do not regret going to Socorro High School.

Socorro High School allowed me the privilege of enrolling in dual credit classes while I was in high school. Other points now mentioned regarding the school were poor, as the former was the only good point of my experience. The administration does not work with you, nor will they respond to you should you have questions. Attendance is more important than your education, but the teachers are good.

It's been an amazing four years. I've gotten to know many people friends and teacher they have really helped me become who i am today. Although some classes have been difficult my teachers helped me get through it. The teachers aren't only your teachers they're your friends and that's what i love about them because they don't make it seem like it's school they make it more than just learning. It's fun to learn in their classes.

I can’t express how dissatisfied I am with this school. The teachers and staff are only there to exist, and I blame their leader, the Principal. Go above and beyond for your students SHS! Lead by example.

This school might have low ratings, but it doesn't reflect the wonderful and amazing teachers that work there. In times of adversity, the teachers showed their true colors and dedication to their students. They don't mind veering off the lesson plan to help their students cope through this difficult...

I don't know how up to date the data is, but I wanted to add my positive experience. This school offers the HPA programs, that prepares the students for college in the health and medical field.
