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.

Green Mountain the school it self allows for students to get great education and opportunities to work in careers based learning. But the students and staff create challenges for the students who English is not their first language. This school sometimes allows students to fall behind and not help the students. Again this high school has great learn opportunities with pathways.

Green Mountain is pretty mediocre, and has been my whole experience. Admin doesn't listen to students very well, and the worst thing they've done here is fire the one security guard who made us feel safe. Threats on the school need to be taken more seriously, and admin should treat teachers better. Let them put their family first!!

I transfer to Green Mountain High School during my junior year. In the beginning, it was hard to adjust my new life to the environment. However, with the help of friends and teachers, slowly I started to feel connected to the community and became a part of a larger family.
