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 created many amazing friendships at Auburn High School. I would ask for more involvement with the students to improve the district. I wish we had more college preparation classes. Plus, the majority of our students are caucasian. Auburn High School has made my student career fun and can continue to be for future generations.

Overall good experience, the main disappointment was food. Lunch was never that good. Most of the teachers were good and cared to be involved. Academics I feel were well split, if you were an excellent student there were harder, more advanced classes but also easier classes for the kids who weren't quite ready for the more advanced classes.

I loved the fact that all the teachers genuinely care about you, not only as a student, but also as a person. There are countless opportunities to connect with your peers and to better the school and even yourself as a person.

People fail a lot due to lack of some teachers and education. Bullying and teasi...

Class of '23 student here.The good: The teachers and faculty. A ton of the staff here don't need to deal with what they're given. Seriously, they were great! A good fraction were absolutely involved, and even if the others weren't they were at least good at their job. The bad: Almost everything else...

I would not recommend this school to anybody. as a freshman at this school i have almost exclusively had bad experiences here. For the most part the administration does not care about you or your problems, they just either tell you to deal with it or that there is nothing they can do. the teachers a...
