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.

While at Reno High I learned math, Science, and English proficiently. But as my senior approached, I was left with a little guidance as to how to be ready for college, and what classes I could take to make life easier. This left me with a hard time of finding what classes I needed to take as well as no help from counselors or administration.

I enjoy how this school isn't as clicky as my last school and it is a lot easier to get along with everyone. There are a few teachers who really shouldn't be teachers anymore because of age or just lack of excitement to teach. However, there are a lot of teachers who I really like. You can tell they enjoy teaching and love their students.

The high rating of this school makes me question if this site is valid or not. To begin, there is no parent involvement, the students are rude and disrespectful, and the school even allows a place where kids can go skip class and smoke if they want. Also, the "common core" program is completely detr...

This is an amazing school. The teachers and support staff do a wonderful job of being involved in the students lives. Sure, there are some issues with certain kids, just like in every school. People seem to believe that the school is where kids might pick up bad habits, but that starts in the home....
