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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Delano is a very welcoming community and environment. I really enjoy the sports culture around the entire school.

I started school here in eighth grade, and I am doing PSEO my senior year, partly because they've run out of challenging science classes and because the student culture is toxic. I do not recommend moving your children here if they are not white. It is also majorly conservative, but with liberal teachers. There is few resources advertised for post-secondary options. The teachers care, and that's the k ly reason I stayed so long.

Great academic system in an amazing learning atmosphere. There are also countless opportunities for athletics and other extracurricular activities. Located in a very safe and supporting town.
Went there for three years, worse time of my life. Principles did basically nothing to create safe places for kids and teachers. Students were racist, homophobic, and nobody did anything to help. Any teacher that actually wanted to help kids was either laid off or left because of bad admin condition...
Highly do not recommend sending your child here! Terrible administration that picks on students. They will paint you out to be somebody you’re not and treat you differently than the other students. Staff has repeatedly broken FERPA laws and surprisingly has had no repercussions. They need to be sued...
Good school as it does prepare students well for college/the future. Teachers are mostly effective and a few are extraordinary. However, there is essentially no diversity and being anything else than a heterosexual, white, Christian Republican can quickly make you a target. Lots of legacy students w...
