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.

The best parts of auburndale high were the college classes they offer . The worst part of auburndale high to me is the focus on rewarding behavior and attendance and not putting more effort into rewarding for academics. Another worst part is the guidance counselors lack of involvement when it comes to the communication they have with students . I would like to see auburndale senior high change the way they treat their students and have more compassion on their students because we're human as well . I would like to see change at auburndale senior high when it comes to diversity.

Some of the best parts of my experience is the amount of friends you are able to make each year and bond with. The sports in school are something everybody wants to be a part of and we have a diversity of students.

My overall experience with Auburndale Senior High School is that it is a pretty good high school for me since it's close to where I live and the academics as well as the electives are very helpful for me. What I'd like to see change for this school is the cultural differences because some people are racist and most of them deserve to be nice and kind to one another.

Counselors are very comprehensive and amazing, also most teachers ar...

When the school has a rating 3 out of 10, that is failing. Would any teacher pass a student that got 30% ?
