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.

Nantucket High School is nice but it is ruined due to how people treat the school and that results in how the teachers end up treating the students over a long period of time.

Nantucket High School is a great little school full of caring teachers and a tight knit community always there to help you.

I had a decent experience with this high school. The environment itself was tolerable, but the school it self was in poor shape. I felt like it made learning quite distracting. I was lucky enough to have great teachers who taught me and helped me despite those circumstances.
