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.

I have had so many amazing teachers that have helped me so much!! They have definitely outweighed the teachers that I do not think should work here. I love the administrators at my school!

I really grew out of my shell and became a better person when I started theatre my freshman year, but other clubs such as Dungeons and Dragons also helped me break out of my shell and become way more social and outgoing. The school has it's problems, from the students to some of the teachers. But overall, I'd say it was a good school.

Why is Mr. Armijo still at Onate High School? My older kids had him for Algebra and didn't learn a thing, came home more confused and my way of teaching wasn't the "right way".
