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 of my experience was being given opportunities like opting out or dual enrollment. There are also a couple of teachers that made this experience much more enjoyable. The worst part would be the anxiety I would get from other students and high expectations for grades. I would like to see the school demand less from already stressed out students.

My experience at Starr's Mill has been positive overall. I have made great connections with my teachers and they care about my education. We have many successful programs such as drama and sports that we excel in. In conclusion, it is a positive and safe environment.

I transferred to Starrs Mill halfway through my junior year. The best part was how welcoming everyone was to me and how understanding and involved the teachers were. The worst part was being new and also the counselor that I had.

This is a wonderful HS.My daughter was academically and socially ready for college. Some of her college professors even asked her where did you go to HS? When she said SMHS, she received compliments. Lot of parent volunteers at this school.

In my experience, if a student is struggling or mentally unhealthy, most teachers prioritize the students already...
