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 am a 10th grader in the school and all I can say is the school is average. The administration is unfair and doesn't always treat students fairly. That would need to be worked on. The courses are good but can use better teachers for sure.

Through my 3 years at Elmwood park Memorial High School I have met wonderful teachers who were thoughtful and helped me understand certain topics well. Despite that the clubs and activities are not active, and do not work on starting new and exciting things.

Absolutely nothing is being done to correct this HUGE problem. Parents s...
