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.

The best part of attending Klein Forest is being able to excel in my studies. My school offers advanced classes such as AP, DC, and KP classes. There are also many clubs and organizations that anybody can be a part of. Students at my school have the opportunity to grow and showcase their talents. The worst part is the student's behavior. At times, there are students who misbehave for no reason which ends up in strict rules being set.

I love the diversity and culture that comes with Klein Forest. I believe there is a group for everyone. Klein Forest has allowed me to grow as an individual and help guide me towards my future career. The worst part of my experience is just the safety issue although I feel that has more to do with the children rather than the school. Klein Forest offers so many amazing programs. Everyone is free to express themselves and find a path that fits them.

Klein Forest High School is generally considered to be a decent school, with a range of academic and extracurricular opportunities for students. Like any school, it has its strengths and areas for improvement, but it's known for its diverse student body and dedicated faculty. Overall, it provides a solid education for its students.
