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 feel like I honestly could have been pushed harder when it came to learning and it felt as if most my teachers didn't really care if students paid attention or not.

Overall Enochs is a good school, yet there are too many students for the amount of teachers we have. This makes it hard to get much personal attention and help in regards to tutoring and college applications, but our staff does their best. There are lots of really fun events, student involvement is just inconsistent. Overall, it's a pretty standard high school that does its best to keep students safe and happy.

Really all they care about is your child coming to school so they can get paid. Once they are there there's absolutely no supervision. Especially at lunch when there's not a campus supervisor anywhere to be found. Fights start and the students are the ones to break it up because no one knows where an adult is. Someone is going to get really hurt or possibly worse. To be honest it's like a prison atmosphere without the guards. That's my biggest concern.

He gives you a review sheet but goes over 1 or 2 problems and if you ask for him to go over another he says that he has done enough already. He also h...
