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.

I have had a good experience at my high school. Our sports, which are something I value, are not phenomenal, but our academics make up for it. I also live in a nice community where I always feel safe, and even if I did not feel safe, there are excellent resources at my school to get the help I need. I believe Geneva Community High School has prepared me well for college and beyond.

The best parts are the people here. They all live close so I know my whole class. It's a smaller school so I know everyone in my graduating class which I prefer. I would say the worst part of my experience is the cockroaches around the school. They can be pretty gross, especially when they are near your personal belongings.

Geneva High School has lots of extracurricular classes and clubs. The teachers are outstanding. The only thing I would change is the level of diversity.

I believe that GHS provides students with more opportunities than they could ask for. I owe who I am, my success in college, and my future in medicine to GHS and the wonderful teachers that work there. Class of 2015.

My child who graduated was more than a...

To be honest, I hated this school. I only stayed for 2 years because I couldn't stand it. Students are very clique-y and downright disrespectful towards one another. Despite complaints to those in positions of authority, nothing was done to try to combat bullying. The teachers were fine, but some ha...
