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.

Buffalo High School is a small school, located in a small school. Although some do not like the small school dynamic, it creates a tight bond between the students and the community. Everyone is very supportive of each other and creates a safe and fun environment.

I would like to see them have more classes for students to take. I also think that they could improve on some of the teachers. I also think that they should have other after school activities

I was hate crimed multiple times because I'm a gay trans man and no one did anything about it. The administration told me to ignore them even when the cops had to be involved.
