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.

Mendota High School is a safe school. When walking in you get greeted by administrators and even many students. We are respected for who we are and not ever judged. We have plenty of police officers around to help us have a very safe school environment. We are provided enough time to take breaks during school and enough time to eat. We are also provided support from counselors and even teachers. Mendota High School also provides various sports and clubs that help students make friends and even stay active. Administrators are very understanding and always there in need of help. Mendota provides classes like Intro to Business or even classes like Welding or even Intro to Auto.

My overall experience is really good, the students and staff are all really great. There is a lot of encouragement to embrace our Hispanic culture. There are no negative parts to my experience, a thing I would change would be to have more creative clubs.

I loved going to Mendota High School. The campus was always so clean and the staff and teachers were respectful. I felt like I belonged in that environment and wasn't overwhelmed by the amount of students.

Mendota High has had great improvements. Some teachers really care about their students but there are others that it's just a job and don't focus on them as much as they should. However, the principal and vice principal are doing an awesome job they are really helping our children achieve their goal...
