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.

It is quite hard to get the schedule you want at this school which is the worst thing. Especially with some of the teachers, and low level classes. The rest of the student life at this school though is quite good. Academics are fairly low level though compared to surrounding public high schools (e.g. only having Intro to engineering and no other engineering courses).

Juanita High School is a mostly average school. Some of the resources available are fantastic, and some teachers can turn out to be really awesome and helpful. However, students can be obnoxious and some teachers seem to not care about their classes much.

The school is really great. The staff is very helpful and dedicate time to parents and students when needed. Academically, they offer a a lot of AP classes and the students are well prepared for the exams. Good athletic program

I should not feel super de...

Horrible administrative staff. Do not every try to change your class here. Students who tried to change out of a class they did not sign up for were threatened by the administration to either stay in the class, be forced to work in their office as their lacky, or lose class credit. Would not respond...

JHS and its faculty have seemingly turned a blind eye on a major issue being same-sex harassment. In my freshman year I was repeatedly, albeit on the lower end (but still uncomfortably) touched by the same student almost every day, along with constant gaslighting by other peers that I wasn't resisti...
