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.

Glassboro highschool had amazing teachers that work to engage with their students. Most people got along and there was little to no fighting. Teachers/faculty were all ways willing to help with any problem you may have.

I like Glassboro High School. I currently go there now and it's not bad at all. Although they could use some more student opinions on certain criteria, the school and district are overall really well.
