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.

Oceanside High School is your standard high school in Long Island. They have many resources to help students achieve. Much of the faculty is very helpful and work to help students achieve their dreams. Students leave OHS with a college readiness and a basic preparation for life.

Some of my best experiences at OHS was playing Badminton and getting involved in clubs and such. Especially helpful are the resource centers.
