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.

Mesa Vista is a very small school with few students. I was bullied everyday beacuse I was white. The teacher are very caring and knows each student personally.

During my years at Mesa Vista High school I've seen a lot change from my middle school being torn down a new gym and library being built but the ting that changed the most was a new principle every year since 7th grade. I've enjoyed my years at Mesa Vista with there only being around 25 kids per grade, being able to have more one on one time with my teachers, all of the teachers and staff are extremely supportive. The only complaint i have about my high school is their is a very small choice of classes and extracurricular activities.

They only offered a few extracurricular activities, many that I did not find appealing to join. They had clubs like FFA, MESA and Natural Helpers. I feel the y should have a wider variety of clubs available like art club, a woodworking club or even a culinary club.
