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 best part of my experience at Marblehead High School is the feeling of community. My school is very welcoming of everyone and wants students to succeed. I feel supported in my extracurricular activities such as sports and clubs. The worst part of my experience has been a lack of support from a few teachers. I have had a few teachers that have not been particularly helpful. I would like to see more teachers helping students who need extra support.

The administration was far from effective, as someone who had a 504 form, I was made to feel as though my needs weren't necessary or important enough to be met. For a town with such high taxes and such a high average income, one would expect a better school system. However, the teachers themselves are amazing, yet the administration is not.
