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 teaching staff make an excellent learning environment, but they are also always willing to talk with you personally or help with anything outside of school.

I love McKinleyville High School and I have really grown as a person here. Every day I meet new people and face new challenges. I truly think this school helps shape young adults into being strong independent people.
