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 was only at Montebello High School for three years and my experience as a student was very good. The school administrators and counselors are very good, and they were quite good to me. There are also very good teachers, and with a lot of passion in what they do. They offer great help to integrate kids who are new to the school and to the country.
