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.

My favorite part about this school is all of the activities it offers. There are many clubs and sports that students could participate in. I would like to see more students participate in them though. There are many students and many lack extra curricular activites.

The beginning of my freshmen year was during when covid entered the US and had to do school classes through online. I then start to do Running Start at Seattle Central during my junior year of high school. Currently a senior and even though I'm not really connected to the high school that much, there's a good community and amazing teachers there.

Cleveland is not a very good school to go to if you want to have a serious education. The materials and classes offer can be interesting but the learning environment is somewhat below average. Most of the students are not hardworking and some teachers just like to give easy assignments for students...

Not the best school to go to for students who want to be challenged in class. There are no honors classes, and AP is only offered for juniors and seniors. Project-baselearnt ing, the STEM program, and extra high school credits initially draws you in, but the irresponsible and lazy students(the major...
