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've attended CV all four years of high school. The culture is great to be apart of as a student and there is a bunch of great staff and teachers. The good ones are hard to find but there is at least on in each niche of your studies. the extracurriculars are great and have some of the best leaders in the space. Our sports are often average but we can have great seasons. Our business and stem are amazing programs with people that have real experience. although with all the good things as a student something do get annoying like the waste of things like student advisment time and office/consouling services often are hard to work with as a student but that's just personal experiences.

The best part is the emotional and academic support that is offered. The worst is the close mindedness of the students.

Castle View high school has overall been a great school to attend and I have enjoyed my time as a student here. There is a great staff, many opportunities for students to get involved, and a good environment to be in. Some aspects of this school such a the math program have their flaws but academics overall have been successful.

Majority of the teachers are harsh and barely do their job, leaving students to basically teach themselve...

This is the worst school! Do not send your kids here! My daughter has never had any issues in school. We moved to Colorado the end of her 8th grade year and it has been horrible! We put another child through high school in Kansas and had a great experience. Wish we never moved!

What once was a great school.. my first couple of years were beneficial for growth and learning. The math department has some amazing teachers, but one stood out to me as truly not caring and truly was a bully. This school year has killed the spirits of students. Control. That describes all the curr...
