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 transferred to Lathrop High during my junior year and I would say compared to my old high school it is way more diverse and welcoming to everyone. The best parts was creating bonds with everyone there like teachers and students. The worst parts I would say is definitely getting settled in from moving and getting used to the environment but overall each teacher teaches different and some teach better than others. I have learned a lot and other times I feel overwhelmed.

I was not always a student at Lathrop High School, I am a transfer. Right away, entering this school, the energy and spirit was evident. While the teachers and students who do buy in to the school make it a truly enjoyable school, there is students and teachers who just don't buy in, and that is my only complaint about Lathrop High School. Other than that, this school has made my high school experience insanely better in the one and a half years I have been here.

My experience in Lathrop high school has been great so far it makes me want to focus on what my interests are in the future. I like all the teachers here, I think the sports in school are fun and competitive makes me want to push myself to be better. I think the only thing l would change how schedule how I always come late it would be better to come early to school cause after I would have more time to finish my work and have more time to relax and sleep.

In my first year at this school I have noticed the teachers' ability to capture the attention of their students, although most of the students are" bored "and "tired" as ALWAYS, the teachers give their best to teach them. However, I do not agree with only having 4 class periods, as students we shoul...

I went to LHS from 2008 to 2011. Since then, the school has made leaps and bounds in improving the overall experience for it's students. School spirit is phenomenal, academics has drastically improved and the music program has grown into a true art program. There are many other programs, but these a...

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...
