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.

Nice school, some teachers aren't the best, lots of bullying and discrimination. Best sports, have such a great football team.

A lot of the extra curricular classes are really fun, especially the culinary program. The culinary programs are definitely my favorite thing about the school, they were fun, and taught me a lot of skills in the kitchen. There are also a lot of college level classes available to help get college credits early.

What I liked about Jersey Shore High School was that it was a smaller high school, so you knew everyone and could talk to the teachers 1 on 1 because there were not ton of students. The teachers are very nice and try to help you as best as they can. The atmosphere was average and the staff was nice.

I go the this school, it's not very organized and they do require a senior project that is too stressful to graduate and computer apps is also required. I just think they make you do more than you should have to do. Bad school.
