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.

It has been a very unique high School experience. Obviously with virtual learning to start my high school experience, then just ups and downs with friends, dealing with teachers I like and don't like, and things like that. Overall it's been okay though. I've managed to get through the bulk of it so hopefully it only gets easier.

This school has been a great experience for me in the past four years. I have become a great leader through the many open clubs, sports and extracurricular I am a part of. The different departments are always willing to help me. I have grown not only into myself personally but also academically and musically through this school.

A very good school that has both nice facilities and great teachers. The sports and music scenes are excellent and everyone there is friendly. The academic's are good as well due to the fact that there are many AP classes offered and the teachers do a good job of making you feel prepared for college.

I graduated from Mount Horeb High School a few years ago and now just finishing up an Electrical Engineering degree from the University of Minnesota. I found a job in my field and will be working right after graduation. Mount Horeb helped me get to the point where I am today with excellent teachers....

I honestly cannot stand this school, except for the music department. The teachers favor the students whose families have lived here for generations. Most people here are close minded and have no ambition and if you do, you're an outcast. This is not a high school for an artist or someone who wants...
