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.

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.

As a senior at Colerain High School involved in class officers, football, BPA, and DECA, I've had a really positive experience. The community, teammates, and teachers made the biggest impact on me. I'd like to see better communication from administration and more support for student-led activities, but overall Colerain helped me grow as a leader and as a person.

My favorite part of going to Colerain was the football. I would go to every single one of he games and enjoy the time with my friends. I was a swimmer and I loved the friends that I met with in the swim team.

Administration sucks but there’s a few good teachers who g...
