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.

I've had a generally great experience at this high school and I don't think there's much I would change besides the communication. I feel like there are certain things they expect us to know or important things that I find out through other students and it's just not always completely direct which can sometimes be frustrating. But besides that I don't have anything negative to say. The teachers are amazing, the other students are generally respectful, and the overall academic system is great. As a freshman I would have definitely had a different opinion, but now that I'm a senior that's matured more and gone through different experiences, I'm glad to say I love this school.

The teachers that I've had are mostly good, and a lot of the kids there are pretty nice. Vaping is a big problem on school grounds. It's kind of difficult for new students coming in to make friends, but I know personally when I know someone is new to the school I try to get to know them.

Greenfield's school system overall has been great for me. Although many things could be improved, such as racial diversity and how the school approaches these issues, I firmly believe that the school has lots of room to grow and is slowly doing so.

To start off with my not saying the teachers are bad or anything thing to do with the academic part is bad it's the fact that, the so called "counselors" specifically Mrs. Kile, doesn't care about their students. My 8th grade year I told my counselor that I was going to do academic honors. She compl...

I hate this school. No one cares about the students and their futures. And when someone does apparently that's the one they fire. They fire them because it makes everyone else look bad. So done.

GCHS is a terrific school! I put three kids through there and nothing but positive experiences. I have watched my peers struggle with the private school decision for high school, especially with their kids coming out of private elementary schools, but we had no such concern with GCHS. First class te...
