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.

The school is very nice and safe. There is a few naughty kids, but they don't do much. I would like to see the lunches change.

Markesan is a very community based school. Everyone is safe and friendly. My four years at Markesan were wonderful, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a small town to graduate from.

What I like most is the involvement with the music groups. Taking kids on trips and giving them lifelong experiences that they will never forget. The involvement with the sports is great. The thing I don't like is the misuse of the money that the school gets from taxpayers and also the fact that so many kids that go to college have to take courses that should have been done in high school.
