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.

I loved the teachers but the students and administration needs some help. The school is very underfunded and it could be amazing

Holmes High school was a great school. They offered many programs to help students out and offer many different forms of information to the students to help them transition into the college life. The teachers work hard to help the students learn what they need and help with anything outside of school as well.
