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.

I felt our school did not do an adequate job preparing the students for college. A lot of the curriculum was geared for the state testing. Teachers were informed that no student would be left behind which would then boost their state scores.

I am happy to see that the music department is getting back on the right track. The new principle, Dr. Sabol, is a great fit for the high school, while also managing the middle school.

Cardinal has come a long way in the last 10 years. Levys are passing, the school has many CCP and AP classes as well as the most advanced trade/tech classes in the state of Ohio. There are no student fees. A nice small school with excellent opportunities for students.
