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.

Erie has some really nice teachers/staff, there's some that are very strict however. I feel like the work load is unnecessarily high for average level classes, but there are some good class options.

Our son has been very happy at Erie High School. We have no complaints. Great school with lots of school spirit and helpful guidance counselors. My son attended three different high schools and this was his favorite. He has made friends and found his way these two years that he has attended and for that we are greatful.

Erie high school is full of good people and teachers that care about your success. However, it is severely overcrowded. There are so many students that the teachers are unable to give us enough individual time. I addition, this school is all about athletics. They spend a it of resources on the athletics department and are lacking in every other department.

Excellent experience so far with administration, teachers and athletic department/coaches. This is our first child to attend EHS. The other two went to high schools in Adams 12, but this has been a far superior experience all around! Very impressed and look forward to more great years as Tigers.
