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.

My experience at Clairton school has been static. I haven't had a bad experience nor have I had an extremely pleasant one. My best experience at Clairton high school is the acknowledgment the principal has for the good students every Friday. My worst experience was probably last year in science class. What I'd like to see change about Clairton high school is the hands-on learning between students and teachers.

They care more about you being a minute late to school then they care about your academics. It's a lot of older teachers there we love them but they need to retire all the lessons are old and they are all the same except for with a couple teachers and classes.

We've had a few bomb threats in the past. But those haven't happened in a while due to our strict security. We have to go through metal detectors every morning. Our school takes bullying very serious. And our school nurse does an okay job.

As a student here as of the year 2022 and having my freshman year be ruined basically by covid. This school does not have anything down pack what so ever. It's more of the students run this school than the actual administrators.
