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 experience with New Oxford High School is extremely good. I have challenged myself every year to be able to get ready to go off to college and all of the teachers are really helpful towards my goal of going off to college for 6 years. My worst experience has to be the food for lunch at times it seems like they do not have good food chooses. But overall my experiences have been good.

The best thing about New Oxford High School is the people. All the students show an excellent amount of school spirit. The teachers and staff are always very supportive and helpful. The worst thing about the school is probably the size. If it was slightly bigger everything would be better.

I'd like to have more emphasis on helping student athletes that are on track to play a sport at the next level. It would be nice to pull aside these potential candidates early to guide them through the entire process.

I call for the immediate resignation of all parties involved in the Russian Revolution show at your school. How dare you celebrate the elimination/ executions of so many people. Superintendant Harbaugh ,you need to do your job or resign!
