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 time at Allegan High School has been good for the majority, I moved here in Middle school and felt welcomed and had help if i needed it wherever I looked. One thing that I was a little taken back by was the un-interest in athletics as I got into High school there is a handful of student athletes in Allegan granted it is a smaller school overall still was interesting to see how many students didn't wanna partake in athletics.

A lot of the teachers were nice and kind, and willing to help with various issues that arose. The administration at the time was great as well, and were very supportive of personal issues. The counseling was more higher education/work based.

I've found Allegan to be a great school in truth. With it, I've had the opportunity to attend a technical school. Allegan Area Educational and Technical Center allowed me to earn certifications like MTA Security Fundamentals and Testout PC Pro to kick off my IT career. Allegan has a lot of passionate teachers who do their best to make the school a better plkace for their students and I'm glad I had the opportunity to learn there.

Being a student at this school seems nearly impossible, either you're good and they expect more or you're not good enough and they give up. In the past year I have watched multiple peers of mine be given up on by Allegan high as a whole. The expectations at this school are irrational and they all se...

Counselors are super helpful and so are some of the teachers. Other teachers are awful, kids are failing left and right. The school has yet to figure this out or remedy the situation. One of the English teachers has such complicated instructions that even the parents can't understand what it is she...
