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 enjoyed my experience at South Pointe High School. I definitely had a hard time in high school but the group of teachers here are actually here for the students and will make sure you are good. I've participated in sports my whole high school career and most of are sport facilities are good.

I have had a perfect time at South Pointe. I've met some great people and made life long friends, and the academic side of south pointe is excellent as they are a steam school.

There are times when they are under staffed and they have teachers instructing classes that they are not experts or trained in. Basically, they must put a person in there so that the class can go on and expect other teachers to support that teacher. It doesn't give the students a good learning experience.

my experience has been awful as a student. it is no better than a jail. they disrespect transgender,gay,people of color and disabled students. they have no respect for those students. they don't handle bullying and some things that happen seem illegal even. this is not a place you want your student...

We transferred in as a 9th grader because I hear such good things about this school. We can't play sports for 365 days from transferring and it is worth it to be at a school with STEM program.

SPHS offers a wide range of diversity . The staff is terrific and the teachers go out of their way to help their students. The theatre program and Art programs are amazing! My daughter feels safe and cared about at SP. It is definately a nuturing environment!
