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 went to their virtual school, however I still had to go in the school and every time I was in there the office staff always welcomed me with a smile on their face and they made small talk. There would be kids in the hallways on my walk to class and they would welcome me too. The virtual office staff probably could not get any better. If you're struggling or you need help then they will take their time and help you. They are on top of making sure you know and understand what you're being taught. They also take so much time out of their day to help us study for our finals to make sure we pass. Over all I love them and its one of the best schools I have been to.

I love attending Basehor, but some changes are definitely needed to be made. A lot of the good teachers are leaving and our education is lacking. We have staff coming in and out of the schools and there is a lack of constant stability. In sports, coaches often have favorites and favor those with a last name well known in the district.

I moved to Kansas my junior year and finished out high school at Basehor-Linwood. In that time there were a lot of changes happening such and remodeling of certain parts of the school, new teachers, and even a new principle. Overall I'd say my experience was pretty good and would recommend this school to others.

Basehor Lindwood High School is part of an excellent community. It is an excellent mid-sized school with a lot of school spirit. My daughter graduated last year and is now at the University of Missouri. Could Basehor challenge some of its students a bit more academically? Sure, but the positives mor...
