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 best part about Melbourne is the teachers. Most teachers in the school make sure to ask how your day is going everyday. Something that I'd like to see change is the schools food. Maybe we could get better and healthier foods for kids.

I've been in the district as a whole my whole life. I can't say much about it my grade I'm graduating with are all amazing people I've had my bumps there's always a couple bad teachers but I don't see that as a problem as a school. I think the school food is something that was good but changed to worse and I wish for younger grades it becomes better. I'm a senior I've been at this school since kindergarten. I've had a lot of teachers/facility have a huge impact on me.

My child is going to Melbourne High School and loves it! The teachers are, for the most part, excellent and try very hard to help the kids excel. The English studies program is super.
