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.

Great school sports are lacking and bathrooms and Air condition need work. This is a good overall school in Boca Raton Florida and I attended 4 years here..

At Olympic Heights Community High School I feel included, respected and represented. The school staff truly care about the academic, physical, and emotional wellbeing of all the students. One of the many people I truly appreciate here is our principal, Mrs. Burke. She is always quick to respond whenever someone needs help and is truly the most respectful principal I have had.

I've been going here for 2 years and although most of these boxes have been checked for me except some not so great college readiness. The food is not great with us just having the district regulated food. Most of our sports team don't win very many titles except for weightlifting, tennis, and girls soccer.
