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.

Overall, the school is pretty average for central Indiana. There are a lot of fights amongst students which has led to the faculty to become overly aggressive to even the tiniest of mistakes. The education you will receive will be okay, the high school is better than the K-8th education. The teachers understand and are overall kind. There are few teachers who are not nice at all. Most of them just need to retire.

Anderson Highschool to me is a good school with good teachers. The biggest problem with the school is the administration.

Anderson High School is an excellent school in regards to academic and athletic opportunities. The administration and staff do their best to work with you and accommodate all of your wishes within reason. The only thing I would like to see change is the level of violence.
