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 like the certain amount of teachers that really put there heart into their work and the betterment of their students. The administration could change immediately. Those that are in charge of the district do not have to the kids best interest at heart. There have been money scandals within the last 5-10 years.

I liked that Leland High School had very understanding teachers who were willing to offer different learning styles. I would like to see the environment change such as improvement on the overall building itself.

We have great teachers and an amazing principal who wants nothing but the best for all of us. The school is centered around our P.A.W.S. acronym (POSITIVE. ACHIEVEMENT. WINNERS. SUCCESS.). Our teachers are nice and well- educated. we have amazing times in class and out of class.
