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.

The best part about the school is it got me ready for college but the worse part is the relationship between the students. Something that I would like to see change in is the school spirit.

Farmington High School is probably one of the best high schools in the state of New Mexico. There is a club, sport or activity for everyone to be involved in. I havent had a bad moment at Farmington High.

Farmington High school has given a great high school experience, they tried there best to help the students as much as possible. They have amazing teacher's including; Mr.Askey, Mr.Underrell, Mr.King, Mr.Baker, Mr.Smith, Mr.Jones, and Mrs.Williams. These were some of the teachers that helped me though my high school life. High school was not easy but having friends, teachers, and family to help you, was a big relief.
