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 would like to see more of an effort to get kids out of high school & have more college credits. My senior year I was ALMOST forced to take high school classes that I didn't need to graduate just as a way to waste time while I was there for 8 hours. Instead New Boston should encourage kids to not take classes for high school but instead take college courses that will transfer to the college they will be attending the following year.

I came from a smaller school. I would have to say out of the two experiences I think New Boston High school was the best choice for me. Everyone at New Boston is like a family, all of the coaches and staff they have is there for you no matter what the case is. There are some things that happen, but it is things they can not control. But overall there is no place like New Boston and I would have never chosen another place.

What I like about my school is that most teachers will try to help you if you do not understand things. Some teachers will take the extra mile to work with you when you need help in their class. Overall New Boston has great programs that prepare us for our future such as college , I just think that they should make a few minor adjustments to the school, so the future students will have a greater advantage and opportunities.

In my experience with this school, they have great teachers, and an outstanding leadership program for all students anywhere from 3-12 grade. Me personally I have had a great experience with most of the students and teachers here. The teachers are nice and understanding and they help you if needed....
