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 like the way most teachers teach. Their teaching techniques are good and they also love to get us involved in activities. They give us the help if needed. However, I'm not satisfied with the fact that they act like they care about our mental health when in reality they don't care.

John Swett high school was not my first choice. I felt as though John Swett was very small and apart from other schools. But when I begin going there I had fun the teachers are understanding and informative for the most part the but I have been taught by teachers only there for the money. The school spirit isn't that well but this following year we have grown closer as a school society. One thing I suggest John Swett high school to work on is to work on the sports and to hire a more diverse selection of teachers.

John Swett has such a community feeling. It is small so it really allows you to get to know your peers. The staff is super friendly and go above and beyond to help students. The one thing the school lacks is school spirit

My ninth grade daughter just completed first-term finals. The curriculum is challenging, and the teachers and staff are supportive.
