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.

Some of the teachers were amazing but some were also terrible. I had a teacher fail me by .01% one year. That was pretty terrible but I still managed to graduate early. Sometimes we weren't challenged enough and got bored which caused issues such as welding tables together. Administration was pretty bad and they definitely picked favorites off of what sport you played or what your last name was but it was okay. Definitely more focused on getting a sports complex then upgrading needed supplies or truly preparing students for the next step in life.

Average high school experience, very FFA oriented which usually feeds back into the farming community. Great band program

United High School is a great school. The classes are smaller and the teachers are awesome and always wanting to help. This school offers several different sports and clubs to be a part off.

It is a very sports based school that is where all of the funding goes. Students with other interests are pushed aside.

No contest in the area with being the best school! The teachers are one on one with the students and they want your children to succeed. The school stands behind the students in their academic and athletic accomplishments. GREAT SCHOOL!!
