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.

Bettendorf High School is a very decent school. They provide you with resources if you go looking for them and the teachers always express how they want to help you succeed. The best part about my experience was meeting a lot of people and becoming unlikely friends with many of them. The worst part would have to be the amount of disruptive students that would be openly rude to their teachers. What I would like to see change is students attitude towards their teachers and their studies.

My years at Bettendorf were a joke. I was always told highschool were the best years of your life and if I had the choice I would completely erase going here and the things the staff (especially old principal ms. Kelly) has said to me. I remember thinking I’d rather get in a car accident and not be...
