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.

Overall at my four years of being at Castle high school I have had a very pleasant experience. Teachers are always trying to better their students and are want us to succeed in every way possible.

Honestly I thought it was a pretty great school with lots of opportunities to help prepare its students for college. I think it needs to be expanded as the school population is growing to a size that the building and staff cannot handle appropriately. Other than that though a great school to go to.

Overall, Castle High School was a very good experience for me. The staff and teachers are very kind and help students the best they can. Over the recent years, there have been more threats and fights, nothing that law enforcement couldn't handle.
