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.

Better administration better school activities and add dance in. I've asked for 4 years and look down on that

Johnston High has outstanding teachers that go above and beyond for their students in ensuring them high quality secondary education. My school has countless ways of getting involved through sports, clubs, and community service. If I were to change one thing, I wish my school focused more on athletics in which coaches wanted to win games as much as the athletes in putting more effort in bettering the skills of players and programs as a whole.

I liked the clubs and activities the most, but unfortunately many of the other aspects of this school are sorely lacking. A enormous amount of funding is needed to repair and restore essentially everything about the building and the quality of academics offered here.
