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.

My experience at Spalding High School has been an overall winding experience due to the fact that teachers are for the most part Great teachers, the student body isn't great, but they get the job done as reasonably as possible.

It feels like my high school wants us to succeed so badly that it's almost like it's shoved down your throat and you feel like you can't actually succeed.

SHS does not take pride in anything. Disrespectful students, limited discipline, and poor staff. The school also has very little concern for athletics and band. It is sad when you go to a game and are able to count out the number of people there on your fingers.
