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.

It provides a lot of AP classes with teachers that know what they're talking about that can be very helpful.

I like Germantown High School, I think it is a great school academically to prepare students for success in college. The sports teams are fun to participate in and they offer a wide variety of clubs.

The best part of my experience was the music program, they are super friendly and upbeat. The worst part of my experience would be the amount of physical altercations that happen here, while there aren't many it's just unpleasant. I would like to see students getting along better and for teachers to make better connections with the students.

Community is great. Small town atmosphere. However, the administration at the high school is very lacking.
