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.

George Washington High School is full of diversity and is always trying to become a better school. They implement new ideas and try to give students the ability to achieve their full potential. The music department is extremely successful and has a positive environment. However, the sports teams may not perform as well as others, they still have plenty of positivity.

I want to see change in teachers who actually teach, security guards who aren't pervs, and better cafeteria food, nobody wants old and molded food!

The teachers and faculty helped me a lot to ensure my success in High School. They went beyond measure to make sure I had all of my classes, tests, and requirements to achieve the diploma I want.
