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.

The best part about school in Los Alamos are the people. It's a small community with lots of highly educated people that really care about the students. Many of the teachers have advanced degrees and they leverage the national laboratory for resources.

Los Alamos high school was a relatively small school in a very small community so there was never a lot of clubs or activities available to students but the ones that were were always extremely good and productive and worth your time. The teachers cares a lot about their students and put a lot of effort into the classes.

I am in the class of 2025. After going to this school for 4 years, I will proudly say that Los Alamos High School's biggest strength is in Math and Science. If you are good at Math and Science, you can have a set class time to intern at Los Alamos National Lab. It's a really good school for Math, science, and sports.
