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.

Lathrop High has one of best track teams with the kindest smartest people involved. Aswell as loving coaches who not only teach you love for the sport but to spread love and kindness surrounded by the people we are around. Academically I would say the same about the teachers who teach the best and help prepare our future generation for success.

Lathrop is probably one of the worst schools I have ever been to. The staff don't care and just use lessons they get off the internet. They are basically just there for the paycheck.

The school does a great job and ensuring that everyone feels accepted and welcome. There are plenty of clubs and sports to join and there is always room to create your own club! The teachers all take their time to explain and make sure that all students have the same opportunity to grow as individuals.

This school has a great campus, and the violence in this school is extremely low, if not none. One issue I have with this school is JROTC. I feel like this school's JROTC program could be much better than it is now. Proper JROTC events and uniforms and customs are taken less seriously than it should...
