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.

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.

We have enjoyed our time at Elida High School. I would like to see more passionate teachers; teachers who are called to teach not just those that wanted a job.

The worst part was the school had odd teachers that picked on certain students while I used to be there, dress coding the littlest of things. I would love to see improvements in dress codes, dress coding the inappropriate stuff like playboy instead of shorts that was slightly to short when the student sits down. The best part was events for the students, trying to ensure school sprit and keeping the mood up like pie a teacher in the face or when they would dress up and even shave their hair for the students.

My overall experience with elida high school has been overall a wonderful experience with me wanting to go to school everyday. I grew close to several teachers and made me deal with some tough times during my life. The food definitely needs improved with me going some days not eating due to the lack of food that doesn't taste like cardboard. Although the food wasn't great the experience at Elida was good and prepared me for college.

Elida was a decent school my freshman year. Quickly the quality went downhill. The administrative staff and some of the teachers seemed to be unqualified and greedy. (There definitely are good teachers that make the experience bearable). In recent years the school has had staff that has discriminate...
