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.

admin are a train wreck. They dont care about students AT ALL. freshmen were doing drugs and the administration tried to cover it up instead of helping the students. People who needed help didn't get it, and racism is a big problem. Do not send your child here.

Overall my experience at Lunenburg High School has been pretty good. I have a good connection with much of the staff in the building and some of my peers. My experiences with teachers and courses vary completely with many very well taught courses and great teachers and other classes that feel like a waste of time and teachers who aren't the best.

This school system is inadequate in its ability to personalize growth and development for their students. Instead, as previously stated in another review, the teachers and administrators play favorites and their means of disciplinary action is inappropriate. This is a horribly run school system. If...

We couldn't be happier with the time and attention the staff dedicates to the kids, having our kids go through all three schools we can see the great work the schools have done and moving here in 2004 was definitely a great decision for us
