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.

This school is great, there is much support through the whole school that makes you feel comfortable and welcomed right through the doors. Though I've never participated in any clubs or activities really, I've heard from other people that they're great, fun and easy. Overall, this school is one of the best schools I've been to of many, and I couldn't regret choosing to come to this school at all, without a doubt.

My best experience it the knowledge I gain from teachers, the fun memories made with friends and also the club joined. My worst experience will be the food in the school cause they are not in required to my liking

Nutley High School is an exceptional high school. It helps me achieve my goals in order to pursue my career in Business Management. With having IEP to help with my studies and having MS was a difficult challenge, but Nutley High School help me over come my fears and instilled in me the confidence I never had before. Making friends was a little difficult because I am extremely quiet. I also in time learned to overcome that too with the help of the Guidance Counselor. The only thing I can say is the school lunches could be better.
