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.

My overall experience with Memorial Senior High School for the past 4 years has been amazing. The faculty and staffs are always there for students especially when they are at their lowest stressing out, they take their time to listen and understand each student.

As long as you get along with your class, you will be fine. I just go there to learn, talk with friends, and have a good time. There are a few teachers that do care about what they are doing, and those are teachers I want to learn from. What I want to see change in the school is in the administration. Otherwise, the school is okay.

My experience at this school was amazing. The teachers are great, some teachers may be more strict than others but those teachers tend to be the most effective in our education. This school extremely spreads the message of anti bullying.

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