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.

At Clarion-Goldfield-Dows High School, teachers are willing to work with those who are struggling on a topic or those who need more one on one time. All of the teachers are knowledgeable about the subject they teach. I am very grateful to attend a school where teachers put their students first.
