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've had an amazing experience attending Marysville Getchell High School. With being part of many clubs, sports, and activities, I've been able to get really involved and feel the sense of community on campus. The staff are incredible, and the culture on campus overall is very positive and diverse.

Marysville Getchall High School has been a great environment for me. The staff has always treated me respectfully and like an adult. I feel like I can be myself in a safe environment without judgment. The art classes that I am currently taking are very engaging and interesting. The school is rather clean and sanitary. One of the only bad things I could say was that some teachers overload us with homework, which can be a little stressful.

As a current student here, I have to say that MGHS has one of the nicest campuses I've seen in Washington and some of the best teachers and staff you can find in Marysville. It is also extremely safe at MGHS, compared to all of the other schools in the area. If your child is interested in Aquatics o...
