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.

Academic wise it's not horrible, there are very limited options. But most of the bathrooms are locked and when they aren't there nasty without any soap and toilet paper.

I love CHS!! This school gave me big opportunities once I got involved in so many great things. The staff and educators are great. Although there are something that need to be fix once the year goes by but that doesn't stop CHS from being a great school. They offer many opportunities to a lot of people!

Well I didn't had much experience because I came to Chelsea high school during senior year but I had the best senior year, the teachers were awesome and would gladly help with many work such as assignments due or QPA. I played soccer in my senior year it was fun I get the chance to meet new people and coaches too and finally graduated .
