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.

I think the best part about my time at MSHS was the teachers and the environment that they created. It's hard to pick one favorite teacher, and that's a great thing.

Marquette Senior High School is a very spirited school with an excellent educational program. There are numerous after-school activities, fit for any type of student, and it is very inclusive for all types of people. The teachers are taught to teach to a variety of learning styles, and there are classes taught for all interests. The overall environment of the school is very welcoming and holds a lot of school spirit.

There are little things that make MSHS great but there are big things too,...

They have slightly predatory business practices because they have a coffee shop in the school that they play ads for during the 4th-hour class advisory (...

Wow, I just read the reviews of this high school. I am from out of town and what I read is very discouraging. It makes me wonder about how my children would be taken care of there and if they would get a good education in and out of the classroom. Wow! Wow, again.

Very poor. If I had to do it over again I would have tried to leave sooner, skip grades and do cultural exchanges to get away. I would not raise my kids in this small minded atmosphere.
