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.

Personally I feel like Rancho is and amazing school. Being a student there has been a great experiance and the community is great. The teachers are all really nice and helpful and genuinely care about the students. I feel there there are a lot of great clubs and creative outlits as well. People are really nice there and nobody tolerates any sort of discrimination or bullying. We have therapists on campus as well and our student counselors are always available to help us. I will say that there are a few teachers there that are somewhat mean and strict. I've had some bad experiences with some teachers but there are a lot more nice teachers than mean ones. Still our lunches are good and its a fun school.
