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.

it is a terrible school the teachers suck the school board sucks the administrators suck everything about the school sucks.I go to school and it drains every bit of life out of me.This school is only good for sports and most people who go to this school don't finish college.This school is simply sports and then the rest of the school is to turn children into mindless slaves.I don't think i have ever been happy being at this school and its only been 4 months if i could go to another school i would.

Good STEM (especially science) programs. - Could benefit from more APs/College classes/programs based on English and History - I've heard that girl's soccer teams are underfunded.

Both of my children graduated from Mahopac High School. They are both outstanding, productive and successful adults. I owe part of their success to this school. I would be thrilled to have my grandchildren attend this school someday.
