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.

Memorial High School provides students with an opportunity to be involved with their teachers and academics. The teachers are willing to provide help to students. Students are exposed to a diverse environment, as many people get along with each other. Students have a chance to seek the knowledge they desire. Further resources are always available to students.

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.
