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 whole overall experience excelled above my expectations. I'm so happy I made the move to Garden Plain my sophomore year of high school.

Garden Plain High School seems to be a very sports centered school. After a year at this school, I felt as if I had repeated a grade. I wasn't even trying, and all my grades ended up pretty good. Especially compared to everyone else. They didn't seem to have had the education they needed, because it seemed everything was struggling in almost every class. If there was one thing to change, I would like to see options for more advanced students to be able to learn faster.

I really liked the staff of Garden Plain High School. I also liked the students there. One thing I would change would be offering more classes.

Excellent overall. Elementary Principal is young and naive and trying too hard to prove himself. Teachers and all other leaders are excellent. A great place to learn and grow.
