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.

It's a fairly decent school, a ton of clubs and sports. I've participated in cross country, which was a very healthy experience for me. I'm also a part of band which is pretty fun, though the music pieces could be harder. I'm ahead a grade in math, but nobody really knows and the kids are some good friends of mine now.

Junior and Senior year of my high school experience contains the most memorable moments in my life. I was able to connect to so many different people from different countries and ethnicities. This school has opened my perspective so much which got me excited on what is to come in college. If there was ever something that I like to see change is to have this school expand into a larger school to have even more incredibly gifted and unique people attend. Although, the very scarce moments in high school that were unpleasant is the poor methods of promoting a safe environment made by the school. A certain example that comes to mind is their way of promoting a safe environment. To keep it brief, we talked about the effects of racism right after an altercation of certain students. The message was good, but it was executed poorly by giving away pizza. In order to get a slice, you have to say, "I don't support racism." This was a terrible way of promoting a safe environment of our school.

The school is doing it's best to prepare more kids for college in recent years, but it seems to still fall behind other schools in nearby districts. Some of the younger people I've connected with from the school have complained of cut activities to push this effort, leaving other nearby schools more appealing, unfortunately.

Great teachers. Tremendous sense of community. Massive number of electives and educational pathways. It's a school with something for everyone. Also, the surrounding neighborhoods have improved significantly throughout the last five years or so.

The staff are caring and welcoming. The teachers are incredibly supportive and qualified. The principals seem really chill. There’s way more offered at this school than any other in the Eugene/Springfield area. It’s a great school.
