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.

My overall experience at Galion High School is very exciting and has been filled with many opportunities as well as fun experiences. By participating in my schools activities and sports such as National Honor Society, Student Council, and Varsity Cheerleading, it has allowed me to make the most of my high school years. My school tries their hardest to make everyone enjoy their time at school and to also make the best of their high school experience.

Galion is a great public school that's a jack of all trades. While one particular thing doesn't stand out as the school's speciality, there is very little that is dissatisfactory about the school. The teachers are friendly and engaging and the school offers a variety of extracurriculars.
