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.

I would say that overall, the staff at Arroyo High School have been extremely accommodating. I have had amazing experiences at this high school, and have gotten involved in activities. I would like there to be more social activities in my school though. But other than that, I have had a really nice experience in high school.

Throughout my time at Arroyo High School, there was an abundant amount of events that took place. For instance, one that I enjoyed the most was "food booth." This essentially was when each club in our school would sell different types of food during lunch, it was quite similar to a food night market. On the other hand, the change that I wish to see is the respect between students.

This school is full of disrespectful students. Their campus is confusing to get around in. Teachers do not have school spirit.
