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 Ranchview has been great so far. One of my most favorite parts about Ranchview was the soccer team. Everyone was so competetive and it pushed me to become better at the sport I love. Even though the soccer coach changed during my junior year, I learned a lot from him and have nothing but respect for him due to the many things that he taught me. He tryulr cares about us and wants to watch us grow and become the best version of ourselves, on and off the field.

It was good. Great location, a good selection of classes, and great extracurriculars. There was some trouble with the lack of good teachers but not too severe. Overall, satisfied with Ranchview High School
