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.

My four year tenure at Milford Senior High School started during 2020/21 Covid-19 pandemic year. The facilities aren't the greatest, teachers are nice, the food isn't the best by a long shot.

The experience at Milford Senior High School is the typical high school experience. I wouldn't say it's my favorite thing but it's not the worst. Although there is a mixed group of students it is still very accepting, there are many different classes you can choose from. You also pick the pathway you want to complete within your high school career, and you can achieve more than just one.

Poor leadership by the District from the Superintendent to the School Board. Students are doing worse than last year. They are only concerned in raising taxes.
