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.

When I was a freshman I was told to keep my held high and I graduate in 4 years. Due to me coming to high school they were very supportive. Maplewood may seem bad to others but is an exceptional school in my point of view . Maplewood is a uplifting and very strong minded in its own creative way. Words that describe Maplewood is, passionate, superior, loving, remarkable, and joyful throughout my time of been there.

If I could start my high school journey again, I would choose the same school that I am currently about to graduate from. Maplewood High has came a long and has open many opportunities to young teens. We have overall some of the best academies in our state and are consider an example for others. One of my favorite events was when our school brought in Ervin "Magic" Johnson to speak to the athletes. That was a one in a lifetime experience. What makes our school unique is that we believe in each of our students and our education level is set very high. Our school, in my opinion, is the best.
