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.

this school is pretty good for the most part i'm kinda new here i'm from bigger towns i still get weird looks and i don't really fit in because most of the kids here grew up with each other sometimes i feel like a outsider i dont dress the same im very different from most kids here i am involved in sports i'm a varsity wrestler and football player the sportsmen ship is great really good coaches i say sports is definitely this schools strong suit all the teachers are great to work with at least the ones i have talked to are i just think the hardest part in this school is making friends as a new kid.

My school has fantastic sports programs, but I wish there were more opportunities in music and arts. I also wish the school offered more dual enrollment and Advanced Placement classes.

Beaverhead County High School is a good, safe school in a rural area. In the 2023-2024 school year the school football team and the boys basketball team won state championships.

Repressive and depressing place to go to school. Administration is overcontrolling and there is little room left for free expression. Faculty for the most part could use improvement and favoritism to students who participate in certian sports is obvious.

This school prepares students well for life beyond highschool (college or not). I am an engineer and I was well prepared for college life and more. The school has many extra-curricular activities and has expanding its advanced placement courses since I was there.
