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.

To me, I think Mills High School is pretty good, teachers are mostly nice and able to help out students, some teachers aren't nice and I regret taking those courses

My experience at Mills has been pretty decent. I think the school's campus is very beautiful and filled with nature. However, I do wish our school had more diversity. Overall, my experience here has been good.

I've enjoyed my time at Mills High School I've made unbreakable bonds there with friends teachers and even a few staff members. It breaks my heart that I will be graduating this year even if I've only been there for two years I still will greatly miss the school and cherish all the memories I made while I was a student there.
