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's a pretty chill school, Ive been going there since freshman Year. Im a senior here now and I like it. The school spirit is amazing and the teachers teach pretty well here and were a D1 high school when it comes too academics and the sports here are really worth while. It puts you in a good headspace and a good environment to develop you're mental and craft for the sport.

At Gray's Creek High School, I feel I've been given adequate activities and guidance as to how to succeed in high school, college, and life altogether. The teachers, staff and faculty I came into contact did what they could to ensure I got the best educational experience possible and I am very grateful for their work and consideration.

Sports and the atmosphere are great and I have never had a bad experience with teachers, however I did find a problem with the selection of classes. The school as a whole is lacking in classes that the student must go out of their way to try and join and without the guidance of my AIG director I would not have had as high of a gpa of success at grays creek.

I'm completely dissatisfied with my child's experience as a special needs student. I don't feel like it's been a positive experience for him. The teachers and administrators haven't shown leadership or respect to him or I.

My son will be a senior next year and he's been attending GCHS since 2014. We move here due to military duty and he loves it. I recommend this school. The staff is wonderful.

My son is a junior at GCHS and he loves it! He was fortunate enough to be accepted into the Academy program available at this school.
