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.

Natrona county high school has been a great experience for me, the campus is beautiful and there are so many options and clubs for so many different students. It's a really great environment and the teachers and staff really seem to care.

My overall experience with Natrona County High School was really good. When I played football the coaches were very friendly but also strict. All the teachers I had through my high school years were all nice and when I was gone for sports they would work with me and help me get caught back up.

I think that this high school tried to pursue excellence in everything from sports to band to the classes. Most of the teachers tried really hard to create engaging material for their students. The coaches that were picked to run sports at the high school tried to make their teams the best that they could be. I wish that mustang connections and doing a program called "Character Strong" were not required. The program that was supposed to "build character" was a waste of time and it did not help any students "build character".

Graduated with a 3.67 GPA in High School and found that my preparation for college far exceeded other students once I enrolled at the University of Wyoming. Never had to take remedial courses like friends from other local high schools and feel lik...
