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.

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 loved the welcoming environment created by the teachers and staff at Canastota. I would like to see a change in the involvement of the students. I feel that the school setting would be more welcoming if students engaged more in activities put on by the school.

I have done very good here. Currently getting acceptance letters to all the colleges I was interested in. As with anything, you get what you put into it. Canastota provided the base and the support I needed.

Like the review before mine, I am not quite sure what they are referring to as advanced classes, as there are not many offered. The district in my eyes has been on a steady downhill slope.
