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.

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.

At Nogales High school I've had a mostly positive experience since I am involved in sports as well as surrounded by a good ground of friends that encourage me to strive to be a better version of myself by giving me emotional support that we all need here and there.

The school is alright but they need to focus more on stud rather than the school. And they should fund more for the school rather on changing the school because it's good as it is. But I don't know that's on them. That's my opinion on it.

The best part of my experience was my senior year getting ready for college. Receiving help from the schools college and career center paved my path in attending my college. The worst parts at times was the staff, it felt as if they had favorites and it was clear. The staff would clearly interact with certain groups and individuals. I would definitely love to see the staff and faculty reach out to everyone and looking for the people that aren't talking much.

Honestly, probably one of the worst I've seen. The kids aren't motivated to do anything. Teachers probably have to continuously baby sit them. It's an amazement that anything actually gets accomplished because the kids here feel as though they've given up on education and don't worry about the futur...
