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.

I'm happy with my experience with LHS - I graduated from LHS many years ago and now my children now attending. Administrators/teachers are invested and care about the students. Sports programs are strong and there are lots of options. Students are challenged but never alienated. Public education has gone through it the past few years with COVID, etc but LHS handled the challenges much better than what I've heard of surrounding communities.

I think LHS is a really good school. The reviews say the school isn't diverse but I would disagree- we have a big Portuguese community but there are other nationalities too. I like that classes like Portuguese language are available- you definitely would not get that in other local schools. We have a good amount of AP classes and the teachers teaching AP really know their stuff and are engaging. I felt the school was a little more cliquey when we were younger but everyone is pretty nice to one another. Students are very accepting to one another.

Ludlow High School is awful! the teachers don't care about the students, and the guidance counselors are worse! My counselor actually told me "not to bother applying to a certain college, because she went there and I wouldn't get in". I was a good student with decent grades too! She didn't even both...
