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 appreciated my time dearly at Borger High School. I believe the biggest change that needs to happen is the negative view of the school by everyone needs to be worked on. It is hard for athletes to succeed when they whole town is already convinced they are going to fail. It is hard to play your best when there are parents screaming at you and your teammates. Borger High needs more school spirit, more confidence, and more class.

Borger highschool is not a bad school but it definitely isn't the best. Our school spirit is not very good, our sports and teachers are okay. There could definitely be some improvements. On the other hand, we have great facilities and classrooms. Here at Borger it is easy to make friends because the school is not too small or big.

I over all had a fine experience at Borger High, the academics were good, but the sports were very poor and there aren't very many clubs.

The leadership is terrible. No one ever returns calls or e-mails. Teachers are lazy and absent more than they are working.

This is a great school for your child. It starts at the top, the administration is second to none. They go over and above to make sure your child is safe and has a direction for their future.
