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.

Overall, Macomb High School is a great school. There are plenty of opportunities to get involved, whether that is through extracurricular activities or sports. There are few things that can improve, like the center connections between the school, teachers, parents, and students. However, they are working on it. I can see this school preparing their students for the better.

Throughout my four years going to this school, I have had a roller coaster of an experience. Not all bad, but not all good. I feel like my teachers care and are always willing to help, but there isn't always the best facilities available for students.

It is a basic high school experience. There is nothing special. The honors kids do not have many options for classes; the lower kids have more. You are only praised if you are previously a trouble child. The sports are ran by the popular people.
