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.

Great school and acedemics/opportunities, but it has terrible administration changes. I would like to see that change and be stable. Students are cliquey

The best part of my experience at Marblehead High School is the feeling of community. My school is very welcoming of everyone and wants students to succeed. I feel supported in my extracurricular activities such as sports and clubs. The worst part of my experience has been a lack of support from a few teachers. I have had a few teachers that have not been particularly helpful. I would like to see more teachers helping students who need extra support.
