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.

McArthur High School is a place where, if you find your clique you'll fit right in. As long as you're an Aice or AP kid you're not alone. As long as you play a sport or in a club, you have a family. And if you're none of those, you'll probably be adopted by those around you.
