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.

Rogers high school has very good staff and teachers. They make you feel very welcome and they are very friendly. The main downside of this school is the building, however they are in the works of building a new one. Overall good school.

The faculty, administration and students all care about each other at this school. Everyone wants each other to succeed. The physical structure however is outdated. I look forward to seeing the school once the new building is constructed.
