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.

John Glenn High School is a wonderful school. I had multiple siblings and family members that went through JGHS and they have all came out very successful.

John Glenn has been a wonderful school for my children. The diversity of academics, activities and sports are great for a well rounded student. The community plays a large roll and is involved with making the school an even better experience for all the students.

I like John Glenn High School because of the education quality. I have taken an AP course and mainly CP courses. They've prepared me for taking the ACT exam very well. I also really like the athletic programs and clubs we have here as well. The teachers are usually very well prepared and usually try to make their classes fun and informative.
