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.

Very dedicated teachers but lacks the strong foundation of actual teaching. It's hard to grasp concepts when it's not enough materials for teachers or students.

Mott Hall Highschool is not a bad school but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The U.S history, Algebra 2, Global History, and English teacher are really good at their jobs.I learned alot from them and the Algebra 2 teacher everyday would stay after school for more than an hour and during regents week helping student even if it's only one student.The staff are friendly as well as the principle and guidance counselors. I joined the National Honors Society and that really helped with getting extracurricular activities outside of school. However, the school is unorganized and doesnt offer many things. Ive been in clubs with only the same three people and nobody else. The students are a problems in this school, they take advantage of the teachers and are rude. They think being chaotic in class makes them look cool and helps them fit in with the bad cliques. They dont take their education seriously. I had to step up my game so I dont fall back in my education because I value it.

I dont hate this school but the fact that this school thinks they compare themselves to Stuyvesant. They let students graduate every last day of January every year. Stuyvesant doesnt do that even though its one of the best schools in New York and its much more responsible and with a higher academic...

This school is unorganized, unappealing, and definitely does not offer a "Warm welcome" for new students, or even staff members. I have attended this school for 4 years and all I can say is these have probably been the worst 4 years of my life. The students are extremely disrespectful and obviously...
