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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Some issues with students involving drug use and behavioral issues. Some issues with teachers. With some teachers its very difficult for me to learn from them. Theres also been issues with the grading scale that the high school has been trying to figure out for a while. Sports and activities are very good and resources are very accessible. Faribault is also an extremely diverse and unique high school.
