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.

At Saratoga Springs high school I was able to make great connections with teachers and other students through classes and clubs. However, administrators and other faculty often feel disconnected from students due to policies and systems put in place.

Saratoga high school has a lot of great opportunities to prepare you for specific jobs in the future as well as a lot of helpful teachers. I think administration sometimes loses focus of what's best for students and what our budget should be allocated to however as a whole the district does a good job of preparing students for life as an adult.
