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.

Started here my junior year through starting my career tech of Biomedical Sciences. Some teachers I have had since then are great and helpful, others not so much. However everyone teaches differently. I have achieved a lot through my program and have been given many opportunities. Oppurtunities like HOSA, National Technical Honors Society and much more. Overall, this school is much better than my homeschool and I enjoy it plenty more.

I am disappointed in the education I received at CSHS. When I entered college, I wasn't as prepared as other students were. The school system, including the high school, needs to promote more rigorous academic coursework. Also, this school system is extremely political. If you weren't born into the...
