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.

I enjoyed attending school here, although the school itself has very few windows, which is due to its layout, making it feel small and cramped. My favorite part, however, is their transfer program from each of the Nampa school districts, allowing students to take classes from each school as they so please.

There is many things I love about my school, the student population is diverse and unique and there are teachers who love and care deeply about their students. There is so much freedom of expression. As much as I do my part to make my school a better place I would still love to see more class-wide unity and encouragement to succeed, as well as more funding directed to the arts department, such as choir, theatre, and band.

For the most part they had wonderful teachers. I only ran into a few that I struggled with really. Throughout my high school experience I had many health problems occur and all of my teachers were very understanding and helpful when it came to working with and around my health issues. I was involved in the theatre program at Skyview and it was always a blast and I always had something to look forward to when it was my block schedule A-Day. Overall this high school treated me well and helped me with any of the things I was struggling with especially in the learning environment and in general friendship.
