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.

Cohasset High School was a very tight knit community in which peers all knew one another and were well supported by teachers and one another. The guidance counselors could have been more helpful during the college application process, though once I got to college I felt academically prepared.

This school is absolutely horrible. Allows students to be bullied and physically assaulted, doesn’t care about students unless they play a sport and encourages teachers/staff to do horrible things.
