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.

Metamora High School is a great place to get involved in both extracurriculars and career/technical education classes. There is a wide majority of classes outside of general education classes to take and learn from. The arts and music department is incredible and taught by amazing teachers. However, I do wish the school had more diversity. It can often be hard to find a group of people to become friends with.

I have loved the last four years at Metamora Township High school. I feel that as a high school they have prepared me for college and I can't wait to begin my next steps at a 4 year university.

An excellent place to get an education. My only complaint is some teachers picked favorites, and made you feel stupid for not knowing the answers.

Teachers and administration truly care about each and every student. They are not only committed to the academic success of each student, but also his/her emotional well-being. As a faculty member, I can honestly say that teachers regard students highly with their actions and conversations inside an...

Parents beware!!! School scores are extremely low, suicide rates are high! These are not teachers or administrators that you want influencing your childs behavior or those that you would like to mentor your child. Your tax dollars provide a three D printer that costs are exuberant to run, but it's g...
