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.

The education level at the higher level classes fully prepared me for my future and set me up really well. Although their response to certain situations was poor they have a genuine interest in creating opportunities for students.

Greenwich High School has very good academics and a variety of language options, including Spanish, German, and Chinese. The teachers are by and large very good and the school prioritizes college readiness.
