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.

Starting high school was the most anxious thing I've ever experienced. Even with most of my family attending this high school their experience was much different than mine. However having been here for almost 4 years, Narbonne has been a great and diverse school. Although there were some troubling times, it never altered the good experience I had!!
