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.

This school has a unique climate and school spirit that no other place has. It is very encouraging to grow up in a place with this type of togetherness. Students are always friendly and willing to help someone in need.

Ketchikan Highschool was a fantastic experience! There were so many friends I made and the teachers are amazing to their students! The sport team was so fun to watch at our home playing. Defiently would recommend new students there!

Ketchikan is a place where you can find a warm welcoming society in grasp of your fingertips. It's a great place where you can finish your high-school and head for college. The teachers are the gems of the school and the facilities provided by the school is average. Definitely want some improvements in cafeteria. But all others are purely above average.
