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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

This high school is excellent with their communication with the students and the parents. They keep everyone well informed about everything that is going on at the school. I am most impressed on how they had a junior parent night to talk about preparing for college and scholarship information.

I wish teachers were a little more respectful. It was obvious some hated being there and hated having to deal with kids. The school is also very obsessive about the football team and I wish some funds could go into the art fields instead.

I've enjoyed my time at Sandra Day O'Connor High School so far. I think it is a very good school that does its best to prepare students for college. However I do think that some things could be improved to simplify students lives and get rid of unnecessary inconveniences.
I have had the pleasure of working with the TSW students (Transition School to Work Program) from Sandra Day O'Connor for almost two semesters. What a GREAT group of students and teachers. You know you have something special when children come to school excited about learning new skills, working tog...

He missed more than 7 days because of the anxiety from bullying. Bullying for literally no reason. Not because of looks, nothing. Or because he "wears th...
Would not recommend this school for any one who isn’t Caucasian. All the other reviews regarding teachers, coaching staff, and bullying we’ve experienced in half a school year.
HORRIBLE. The district also doesn't care. There have been several complaints made with NO ACTION. The school brags on its iPads but their technology is terrible.
