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.

For the year I have been going to Newark Community high school I have to say I love the place. The teachers and staff are great people and I am honored to be student here

The school seems more involved in sports than fine arts. They also have a senior presentation which is not required by any other school. If you fail it, you have the chance to renew it, but you could possibly fail highschool. These would be the only downfalls to this school.

9/10. Staff, and departments work well to ensure students are not only prepared for life, but for careers that will actually support them. Facilities lack, but what is missing in property is made up for by excellent, and genuinely caring staff.
