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.

Overall I had an impeccable experience at Carmel high school all the staff and my fellow classmates were amazing. I felt as though they shaped me to be better and to have a great start for college. As a school they prepare you for the future very well. They offer PNW Boces where I took Law Enforcement and EMT course which really helped me figure out what I want to do going forward.

Carmel is a great school full of opportunities in clubs, sports, and academics. I would like to see more diversity at this school though.

It's a great school with nice teachers and staff as far as I've seen. Now becoming a sophomore I have made friends through clubs I have joined and have gotten closer to others through participating in a sport now. Taking harder courses I trust that my teachers and peers will help me to handle more challenging things in my future through harder tasks.

Teachers and Staff were my absolute favorite but the kids in the school can be rough at times. It’s important to try to find you’re niche and peop...
