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.

Amazing teachers and academics. The lunch is great and there is a lot to choose from. We have some of the region's best musical bands, orchestras, and sports teams. The only complaint I would have is that the school is in dire need of remodeling and removal of the modular classrooms.

Strath Haven High School has honestly been one of the best experiences. You rarely find a school where the music appreciation matches the appreciation for sports. Our musicals are sold out every single night, our football games are jampacked as people from all over come to watch our football team and marching band get crazy on Friday nights. I loved it here and the teachers are just so amazing!!

My time at this school has been interesting. The teachers are amazing and they are very helpful especially after covid they understood what the kids were going through. My personal experience with the faculty at our school has also been good. strath haven has an amazing guidance department that with the right person and allowing yourself to be helped you can be successful. The people at this school have prepared the students for college to the best of their abilities. I want to repay their faith and kinds by being successful in college and continuing my education.

I was someone who was in special education as a child. Wssd put 5 years of time and effort into getting me out. When I was given academic independence in middle school, I struggled. My grades slipped, however, my teachers and guidance counselors noticed and helped me. By the time I was in high schoo...

Our child has had a great experience here. They've been challenged and gotten help when they've needed it. The block schedule makes getting additional attention pretty straightforward. All of the teachers seem to care a great deal about the children. There have been more than enough clubs and extra-...

I attended any ivy league university after attending this school. I found the school did not adequately prepare me for the level of work that was expected at college. In the end I did okay, as did most of my peers who went to good universities. But that is mostly because of our privileged background...
