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.

I've had a very good experience with Neenah High School. The teachers are amazing and I've made a lot of connections with staff. I have learned a lot and I've overcome a lot of fears such as public speaking. I was supported by numerous people even when I didn't make the best choices. Overall, I did feel safe in the school besides a few little things. The only thing that made my experience a little worse is that I have allergic reactions to the food, despite me being able to eat the same food outside of school. Besides that, I have made a lot of friends and I found that I belong here.

I've had a great experience at NHS. From elementry school to my senior year, I can say I've enjoyed my time.

Neenah has a very wide variety of class options from trades to music all the way to the medical field and almost all the teachers are very qualified for what they teach and know everything that we need to know and most of them put in an effort to make class fun and engaging. With the wide range of classes, there is one downside and that is being put in a class that you do not enjoy. For certain classes, the description is either vague or misleading to what the class entails so at times you will sign up for a class expecting one thing and get a whole different experience to what you expected.

Oh man, cannot say enough about this school district with my experiences with it. I have found the variety of extracuriculars to be extensive and great staff at the helm. The community spirit about our schools is strong. My three kids graduated from Neenah’s schools and I did too, I have 4 siblings...

We moved to district when my son was a junior and have been extremely happy. He went from a low 2.0 GPA in Appleton to a 3.057 GPA at Neenah. My son has developed great relationships with his teachers and has grown into a very mature young adult these last 2 years

I overall liked my experience at this school, and I'm someone who tends not to like school that much. Most of the teachers I had were pretty good. There was only a few I didn't like.
