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.

I loved Clay High School. While it is not the best high school the students and the teachers are amazing. Everyone loves everyone.

What I liked about Clay high is that it doesn't have a huge amount of students like other big schools. I like how I'm able to get onto sports teams and be able to have fun. I do not like how many students there are per class and the zoning for the school is getting bigger every year but the school can't hold that many people. A thing that I like about it is that I can do sports while I do band because most schools don't let you and I love to do both so much.

Clay High School is a decent place. The traffic going in and out is bad since it's on a state road. The teachers are nice though and the AP classes are pretty good. Due to the road and not having a stoplight or well light or well painted crosswalks, there have been a number of accidents. The food is alright. The counselors do help a bit with college prep but they do not share a lot of scholarships.
