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 used attend school at Keaau Hight in Hawai'i. When I moved to Seirra Vista High it was a different setting that i wasn't used to. It was difficult for me to adapt and finding new people who have the same interests as me. Now I been at SVHS for 4 months now and now i'm doing better than I was when I first moved.

Sierra Vista is a great learning environment that gets the job done. I have always felt safe at the school and never worried about my health and safety. Also, the basketball program is great.
