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.

It is only my first year at Goldendale High School, but I do like it. I have been in Goldendale for the last nine years, and I believe the school district to be great. I have gotten along with all my teachers I have had, and I respect most of my classmates. What I would change about the school is the times. I have yet to have a regular day at Goldendale High School due to the pandemic. Other than that, I have been doing good, and understanding everything just fine.

Wrote a fairly descriptive review but once I was done found out the 1000 character limit. So here is a VERY short synopsis. Faculty not too great. Teachers treat students like children but expect them to get angry about it. Teaching isn't too great, you'll want to teach yourself or have someone else teach you. Friends ships will probably be close, if you're here long enough. Otherwise its bellow par. Hope it was helpful.

I love both the staff and the teachers, they are so helpful with everything and really take the time to work with you if you are also willing to put in the time.
