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.

I have had a good overall experience at Casa Grande High School. There are many many different options in courses. All of my teachers have been great, and the classes are challenging but your teachers want you to succeed so they are always there to help. There are also a lot of opportunities to get involved in extra circular activities.

At Casa, I have been accepted by almost everyone. Casa provided me a safe environment.

My child has been getting bullied and it's very clear and apparent to everyone even staff at the school but nothing has been done to help.

The school doesn't know anything about the students and everything they do that they think is the best for them is actually the worst case scenario.

Teachers are disengaged and lack any kind of empathy. Workload during COVID was increased, even through distanced learning with unrealistic expectations. Some teachers marked zero for even one mistake while others wasted the entire zoom class talking about what they did over the weekend instead of p...
