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 have enjoyed my time here. I am offered many academic opportunities such as dual credit classes and the resources I need to succeed in them.

Gering High School consisted of students who were focused only on their high school life and not on what comes after. The faculty was a mix of people who cared and who didn't, even prioritizing their own positions and respect over the preparation and consideration of students. This was not the worst high school to go to, but it could have been better.

Staff accommodated students how they needed. Counselors were understandable and helpful. I was struggling, but the principal was understanding of my situation.
