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.

Chrisman is a small school, so everyone knows everyone. Almost everybody gets along, and the teachers and staff are very friendly. One down side about the school is that is too small to offer things like a football team, a swim team, National Honors Society, and many more sports and clubs.

I feel that Chrisman High School represents American School systems well. As with any school, Chrisman High has its pitfalls. Some of the rules seem a bit trite and unnecessary, but they are there to keep the students and staff safe and on task. I feel that Chrisman works well to provide for its students and ready them for a world outside of high school. As written on the bricks of the school itself, Chrisman believes strongly and withholds its prome of allowing you to "Come ye in to learn, go ye out to serve."
