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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Catalina Foothills High School (Cat Foot) is the best school. So glad to have a excellent experience and opportunity to be a student at this school

One thing that used to really bother me about Catalina Foothills High school is that no matter what grade you are in or how many credits you need to take to meet graduation requirements, it's school policy that all students must take at least six classes per semester. Now, as a senior, staying at school for the full amount of time isn't a big deal to me because I really enjoy the elective classes I take, even though I don't necessarily need the fine arts credit, ceramics is a blast. I think I'm lucky I get to attend a public high school with so many opportunities.

Catalina Foothills is alright as a whole, but lacks core aspects that would have greatly benefitted me in the long run. There isn't a lot of diversity in student culture or in academic variety. I often felt envious of other schools, but I understand that this is a great school in terms of highschools found in Arizona.
