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 Clifton High School has been nothing but good. I've had ups and downs at this school, but it's been great. I've made amazing friends and realized that some people aren't who I thought they were, but I've moved on. The school offers an amazing band program, being the sixth at the UIL State Marching Competition and the sports teams are great too, the teachers can be a bit difficult but they're all good people and genuinely help us learn.

I have had an amazing time attending Clifton High School. I have gained many friends along with great teachers who love all of their students. My best experience in Clifton High School would have to be going to state with the band. It was very surreal and I am very grateful that I got to make a great memory with the people I love. My worst experience would honestly be having to leave, unlike most people my age I do enjoy coming to school and seeing all of my friends. I'm not ready to let that go but I am ready to start a new chapter in my life and continue my education. I have no changes that should be made, in my eyes this school is perfect and I wouldn't want to go anywhere else.

Discipline is washed under the rug. Students involved in bloody fights do not get reported to the state so that the district keeps a safe rating. Parents who post frustrations about the district on facebook get called in to the superintendents office and reprimanded!

Clifton High School was a great move for our kids. The teachers and administration were always willing to help our kids. They provided us with all the information we needed to make the educational choices for our kids. This school is very caring and kid friendly.
