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 experience at Martin High School has been nothing short of amazing. The well-trained staff teach a variety of intresting courses and allow me to grow into whatever I want to be. The STEM Program has allowed me to figure out my pathing and decide what college is right for me. As is typical in most high schools, the bathrooms and cafeteria food could use some repairs. However, the great quality education makes this school worth it. I don't know if I could've acheived this much at any other school. The clubs, classes, and support systems are what truly makes Martin High School stand out.

As a student who attends Martin High School, I would say Martin is different from other schools in many ways. Our athletic programs are excellent. I would say every coach in the school is incredibly invested in the excellence of their athletes. Wether it's through study hall or appropriate punishments, I am very proud and honored to be a student athlete at Martin High School.
