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.

Excelsior Springs High School gave me some of the best memories of my life that I will never forget. I learned a lot in the classroom as well, and all my teachers were not only helpful but understanding. The town itself is amazing and very tight-knit. Overall my personal experiences at Excelsior Springs High have been amazing.
