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.

Clarence has a vast amount of opportunities for every student with their clubs, courses, etc. Very good school.

I absolutely love the teachers at high school. They are very encouraging and overall people who are very trustworthy. They put their students first over themselves and make sure everyone succeeds in some way. At school I think the idea of vaping or smoking should be changed. There are others that do not enjoy that type of harmful chemicals and should be banned from the schools.

There are many opportunities for fine arts and sports. Clarence also offers a lot of resources for college help. There is a relatively large student body and it is easy to get lost in everything that is happening. There are several clubs that are for art and business however the selection is limited. The community is somewhat strong but as strong as it can be for a public high school.

The District is financially broke. I just came to this School District and they cancelled three of my child s classes. Class sizes are between 27-32 students/class, not 15. Don t waste your time, choose another school district, go private or go to Williamsville.
