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.

Glendale is a very tight knit community with an award winning music and arts program and teachers and administration that support student growth.
3.0 Senior

Glendale is a very small school in a very small area. Although it lacks diversity in terms of race, the student body has its own sense of diversity as all students are very different whilst still being accepted by eachother.

I had an okay experience when I went to Glendale. As a Glendale graduate, I feel I did not learn the things I needed to in order to prepare for college. I am just now figuring out how to get my academic career on track, which took forever because I did not learn proper study techniques in high school.

HORRIBLE! They feel as though parents don't know their own children, they don't handle complaints, they do not tolerate criticism, and talk down to parents. Very disrespectful to parents.
