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 parts of Minden high are the opportunities for sports. The worst part of it are the non variety's of clubs. A thing I would like to see change are the students coming together more for the community.

Minden high was kind of a love hate situation with me. I loved the teachers but the rules we're just too much. They cared more about the rules than teaching what they we're supposed too. The change that I would like to see is they invest more into they're students and be more open.
