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 classes have been good and I've learned a lot. Our school is small so it's hard to make new friends. There are a lot of oppurtinites.

I think that my high school is underfunded. I believe that with more funding it could become a better school. The school needs more teachers and needs to be able to fit everyones needs.

I love my experience at Kiona- Benton High school, they always made ways for students to connect in and out of school. There is always extra opportunities after school and extra help offered after school. I also love how its a small school; it made it easier to make friends. The class sizes are small so there is always time for one on one instruction with your teacher and it is very helpful.
