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.

In general, I've had a pleasant time at Montclair High School. I am Mexican-American and most of the people at Montclair are too, I never felt out of place, or alone in my culture. I felt welcome and like I was amongst people from the same background.

It is an okay school but i wish there was better protection. I had been going to that school for a year and now i've got used to it. The culture there is good and the diversity as well.

The best parts of going to Montclair were the friendships I made over the years and being a part of the dance team. The worst part of attending Montclair High School was not feeling like I fit in. I would like to see a more diverse community.

I am disappointed by the Cavalier Staff. Outwardly they appear to really care and pull for the students. In fact, they don't. Like everything in life the kids at the school are just a number. Sad.
