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 had an amazing experience at Fairport Central Schools. I made some of the best friends I will ever make and amazing connections with teachers, coaches and more. I will always miss being a student in Fairport.

Some of my favorite parts of Fairport High School are the teachers and sports. My teachers have been very accessible and make it easy for me to get help when I need it. They also give good lessons that I can follow and understand. The sports at Fairport High School are very inclusive and give everyone a chance to experience a sport if they really want to. We have many sports at our school from the modified to varsity level and all kids get a chance to participate at some level. Those aspects of my school make it inclusive for everyone and provide a better experience for all kids.

Transferred from private school, feel that private school had me more prepared academically. Teachers are fair, some are dedicated to teaching and the students outcome, others seem to not put much into the class. I feel that the school does offer opportunities to get student experience with the work force
