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 rated Batavia High School 5 stars because it has a very support education system. Especially within the Covid 19 pandemic, the teachers have all been very good about offering time to help students. The counselors at the school are also very supportive and open to hearing any issues you may have. Finally, I have never experienced any instances of bullying at this school and I think that is definitely something to be proud of.

Horrible. So many students threaten others. Teachers are rude, and have friends to support them. And kids bully each other. They are rude and disrespectful. I don't know how anyone likes this schools. Don't let the high SAT scores fool you. Avoid this place.

This school cares more about stats, test scores, and impressions. Control that, and you can discredit anyone's criticism and accuse them of being a grumbler or complainer who jumps to conclusions. They do not prepare most students for college like they claim. Only those students already at the top o...
