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 experience was really good with my academics and being able to understand the material that is served to me. The only downfall of it is that I wished that I would have participated way more than I have. Some stuff I would like to see changed is maybe adding more parking spots and a cafeteria where students could actually sit instead of choosing to sit outside or go out to eat somewhere.

The facilities are mostly nice. The only issues that have been had are with the cross-country and track team because the school only has a dirt track (which can cause issues for the runners).

Glendora High School is unlike any high school out there. It is located near the hills of Glendora and is surrounded by amazing people and fellow students. There are many organizations, clubs, and courses available for students. A great music program, a variety of AP courses to choose from, and athletic programs and coaches are just some of the amazing things at Glendora High. It is an overall great place that has been improving each year I have attended.

All Glendora schools are amazing! Not just academically but socially. It's small and safe community and the staff and teachers really care about the students. I have a son in the high school and two children at Goddard Middle School. Most of the staff have worked there many years and many have come...

I'm giving this school a 2 based on nearby schools, such as Claremont High, Bonita High, and San Dimas. I think this school is lacking compared to the other schools when it comes to preparing students to be competitive for college admissions. They do not offer as many honors level courses that are a...
