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 personally enjoyed my time there, and even though I believe there was an overall lack of clubs, I think this is something that can be easily improved. Additionally, I believe the food served there could be improved.

Ive had a pretty good experience at GHS for the 3 years that i've been in high school. The teachers care deeply about their students and do everything they can to make them feel welcomed, safe, and heard.

I graduated a few years ago but Glendora High is a great school. Everything is learned both inside and outside the classroom with educated teachers and staff members who put student learning first. I was a part of the volleyball team for a couple years and am grateful to have been involved. All the school events ran smooth and were super fun. The school campus is very clean which makes for an enjoyable experience as well.
