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 best parts about Brenham are the people I met while going to school here I feel I have made meaningful connections over the past 3 years but some of the bad things are the facilities our track team has to ride a bus just to practice on an old track

Brenham High school is decent for a public school but still could use many improvements as far as structurally and could use more consistent teachers.
