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.

Egg Harbor Township high school is a great place to get an education and offers a variety of different courses and activities for all students. I love how there is different academies such as MSA (medical science academy). I am apart of this academy and it offers me courses that I normally would not be able to take such as, neuroscience and genetics. I would like to see more clubs be added such as HOSA. This organization applied to be a club but was declined.

I've spent four years of my life there, and if I could go back and change some aspects of my experience, I would.

I transferred from another school my freshman year which was 2020. It was difficult getting to meet anyone when we were supposed to be social distancing. Even if it wasn't a covid year, I think it still would have been difficult given the size of the school. I think more help should be given to incoming freshmen or anyone new to the school. The best part is the teachers and coaches, they are the best.

This school isn’t terrible, you could be doing a lot worse, such as those in the inner cities which have much more extreme forms of violence. The amenities here aren’t half bad. However, due to its large size (among other factors) the general social climate and culture here is poor and if you aren’t...

One of my sons got bullied to the point that we had to move him to Charter Tech High School (which turned out to be a MUCH better school over all). My other son is from a foreign country and taught himself English. His English teachers used to e-mail me frequently about how bad he was doing, misspel...

I'm in my Junior year and it's been a terrible experience. I'm a succeeding student with college plans, three advanced classes, and a frequent club-goer. If you're LGBTQ+, disabled, or suffer from any disorder/mental illness, this school is not for you. Most kids act like they're in the hood despite...
