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 have enjoyed my experience at Salem High School. The campus has 3 high schools and it gives me the college experience. It is a very diverse school. The food is average but you can bring food from home.

Salem is an interesting school. No matter how many times you try to make a change like getting a bad coach fired, they don't do much because she has family in the school system. They're more worried about people smoking in the bathroom then teachers/coaches tormenting kids

As a former Salem student, I can honestly say that I will never allow my future children to step foot in this school. This is a school that deeply prioritizes the over achieving, and ignores everyone else. Teachers and administrators shame students with lower grade point averages rather than helping...

Amazing school, exemplary. My daughter loves it. She used to hate school, but now she does so well! She even got excepted to Harvard! I can barely believe it! She was such a terrible student just 4 years ago in middle school...but now...she's practically shining!

This school is the worst, the teaching is all off and the students have no moral codes. This school is really biased and the lunch is the worst. SOOO unhealthy.Don't think about intending the school, instead, join Canton High School instead.

My son had ADHD and a school diagnosis of autism. They are accommodating him very well. We moved here for the schools and especially their Special Education was great and the same with all programs.
