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.

Cobden High School had great educational classes. The teachers help you if you are not understanding the lesson. The Activities are very fun and create teamwork among all students. My favorite classes were Math, English and Art. The school has a bully free zone. They keep the school clean and safe for the students. The school is small and I would of loved to have had more options to involve myself in more sports or activities.
