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.

Frisco High School is a great school in which there is much diversity and culture that are represented. There is a heavy focus on academics along with balancing those academics with outside life. The teachers care about the students work and are willing to help in any way to help the student achieve success. One thing that can be improved is the safety, some students open doors for the other students or people trying to get in which could be dangerous
