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.

Attending Queens Technical High school was definitely a great 4 years of my life. There were many different programs available for students in every department whether it was engineering, electrical, computing, business and even cosmetology. I learned so much from my teachers and was fortunate enough to attend a trade school.

I liked how many of the students are involved in the activities and there is a connection between staff and students. Something I'd want different would be some of the rules. For example, the bathrooms not being open for 10 minutes in the beginning and end of the period.

It's technical programs are good, but it lacks clubs, and sports and it's art and music departments are lacking.
