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.

Everyone is kind and friendly it feels like a family. There are so many clubs to get involved in. Peoria High school celebrated there 100th year and there's so much tradition and History. I would like there to be more communication between the parents and the administrators

My experience over the pass two years with Peoria high school have been very eventful. From coming in as a freshman and being very scared yet excited for my first day of school to now becoming a junior and almost to my last year of high school and everything in between have made me into the person I am today. I have encountered amazing teachers and life long friends here. I have also grown significantly while being here due to the fact I had to step up as a leader for being the captain of the varsity basketball team. I have also had to step up as a leader in the classroom as well and not be afraid of asking questions when need be and it's all thanks to the safe and welcoming environment Peoria high school has provided.

Peoria high school has a great tradition of school pride and academics. Their sports teams, especially their football team are a great source of pride, fellowship and school spirit. The teachers are caring and foster academic growth in students.

My children were at this school 2013/2014 school year and I am pulling them out and taking to a charter school instead. In this past school year there has been favoritism shown by a teacher that was left completely unchecked and a student lived with another teacher apart from parents. That student w...
