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.

During my years at Avon Grove High School, I have experienced great experiences, as well as troublesome. The students attending this school are wildly diverse. However, the sports and art programs that were presented to me, provided me with the creative spark I needed.

Avon Grove HS is a well rounded learning institution. I have two daughters that have attended AGHS and both have had great experiences.

New high school in Jennersville is nice. Bathrooms are an issue but its an American public school. Food is mediocre but that's ok too. It's livable, not the worst, and the only major issues stem from the student body (which I'm also sure is a nationwide issue). Would recommend, don't mess with some of the stricter teachers.

The administration has absolutely no care of the students...

I attended AGHS the first year it moved into the current building around 1957. It was a very good school and I was not planning to attend college but the guidance counselor called me into his office when I was just a couple months away from graduating and wanted me to attend college. He was able to...
