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.

I really enjoyed my time as a student at Findlay High School. The teachers are so supportive and I created memories both inside and outside of the classroom that I will carry with me always.

There's close to zero diversity within the school including teachers. Any teaching that happens about LGBTQ events the teacher will get suspended or fired for. Any type of sexual assault is made not a priority by the school and if the student is convicted of this type of assault the school does nothing about it. MAYBE a suspension but never expulsion. The school focuses mainly on athletics when all of our teams suck when we should focus more on the musical part or the academic part when those are the things that will actually get people somewhere.

There was a big lack of representation regarding cultural, ethnic and racial groups within Findlay High School, which also led to a lot of microaggressions, stereotypes, etc towards minorities in the school; however, most of the teachers I had were great people. Educationally it wasn't the best, not many APs and CCP courses you could take.

Findlay High School is an excellent school with many different opportunities for students. The teachers, counselors and administrators really do seem to care about everyone. Being a somewhat larger school, it is able to offer a great variety of specialized, college prep, honors and advanced level co...

As a parent of 2 children that attended FHS, I must say this school is one of the worst. From drugs, gangs and bullying to being severely understaffed. Not to mention the chaotic open lunches and lack of caring and teaching skills from many faculty members, this is not somewhere you want to send you...
