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.

I've gone to Plainview since I was in Pre-K, and all of the teachers are more than qualified to teach and get their students ready for college. As students, the school pushes us to not only get high grades but also to participate in our school activities and extracurriculars that the school has. Though some programs don't get as much funding as others it gives us a chance to raise money ourselves for what we might need in that class.

The worst part of Plainview is their lack of care for the music and art programs. Football, baseball, softball, and track have a ton of funding and the newest equipment. A change for this is to show more support for the programs and help the teachers of the programs seem more enjoyable for more recruitment. One of the best things about Plainview is the size. The smaller school allows students to get to know each other better and allows a less intimate environment for new kids.

For me personally, there's no other school I'd rather go to in the area than Plainview. I've been able to take so many AP courses that are preparing me for college. The teachers are very helpful and will always answer your questions. I've also been in band and have enjoyed it so much. Sure, it is a small school with clicks, but I quickly found a great group of friends here. Overall, if you're a hard worker and are trying to get in a good college, Plainview is the place for you.

Plainview hs is one of the top public schools in the State of Oklahoma. Great educators who put the student in front of themselves. Engaging balance of academics and sports.A lack of diversity would be the minor drawback, but overall a top-notch institution.
