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 feel there is still alot that needs to be done about the student culture here, we have constant fights do to us believe that going to a counselor for help doesn't help and we rather do it by ourselves. There's been a-lot of racism, sexism and homophobia that happens during school with the facility that's not dealt with and had been not addressed , the adults protect each other from it but not the students and that needs to be handled .

My experience at Absegami High School was wonderful. Although every school has its flaws, Absegami is the only place I could ever see myself at. Although I wish there was more organization at times, I would not trade my experience for the world.

It's been an okay experience. The sports teams are amazing, including the coaches and team players. Some teachers have not been a good experience. The administration is terrible.
