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.

For the most part i've enjoyed my high school years at Memorial, the teachers are great, the class selection is great, and there are so many opportunities.

JHMS is probably one of the worse highschool experiences one can have. The students have no home training as well as the parent who don't parent. The teachers are mediocre as well as the administration who don't prepare you for the future experiences such as college.

Good experience. Would like to see more help for students academically. there are a lot of sports after school, but there should be tutoring too.

I hated completing a long term sub position at JMHS. The teachers did not send me their lesson plans or accommodations for classified students. They had a poor attitude towards substitute teachers. The administrators only cared about athletics.
