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.

Gladstone High School was a great experience for me as I transferred here for my senior year (2023-2024). The students, staff, and community were all very welcoming and it was very apparent that they did everything they could with the minimal budget they are given to make our school year the best it can be.

Overall it's a decent experience. A few of the teachers are amazing, but the majority fall short. Lots of energy gets put into helping disadvantaged students, so much that the standards are lowered and less opportunities are created for above average students. School pride is amazing though, and athletics are a big deal.

My daughter has dyslexia and adhd with testing anxiety. In the year it took to have her treated and diagnosed, everyone of her teachers went the extra mile to help her succeed. They watched her take tests to get insight into her testing issues, they orally tested her, they retested her. This was all...
