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.

This is my 4th year at the school the last two years i was only there for one period. best part is there's diversity in people and you can find people who can truly be your friend worst part is the bullying and negativity at the school. I wish we had more school spirit and encouraged people to be nice to one another despite differences

It was always a great experience at Graham Kapowsin and if I were able to go back I would! The school had everything you need to be prepared for the world after High School.

I have been a student at Graham Kapowsin High School for 1 1/2 years now and so far attending this school has gone fairly well. One of my favorite parts about this school is the teachers. The teachers at Graham Kapowsin High School are funny and nice to talk to. The worst part of my experience is the bathroom rules. Only 25 students can be out of class at a time and when you get to go you only have a 7 minute pass with only 25 passes for the whole trimester.
