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.

Over all my high school experience was relatively good. I have had really good teachers all four years of my high school experience who have encouraged me to work hard, do my best, and grow as a person and grow in my knowledge. There have been great classes with a lot of high level opportunities and great diversity for many different interests. The over atmosphere is welcoming. My high school is not super open to religious ideas but most of the people still try to be good and kind to each other. I really didn't have many bad experiences in high school even though I'm not the guy who goes looking for trouble and I tend to hang out only in the good kid, high level classes group. Looking back I don't think I would change anything about my high school career.

There are a lot of good people that attend Sentinel, and I made some great friends. We have one of the best band programs in the state and we are generally very active in fine arts. Sentinel has many advanced placement classes, and generally great teachers. They prepare the students very well and makes Sentinel have some of the highest pass rates on the AP tests in the state.

My son attended Sentinel High School and it was a wonderful experience. The teachers were interested, engaged in the students' welfare, and very involved in all aspects of each student's particular needs. There were extra-curricular activities available addressing a wided-spectrum of interests and,...
