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 graduated from Nyssa High School in 2024. I spent all 13 years at the Nyssa School District. During my time at Nyssa High my experience was good. The academics are very good. They offer many classes for students to choose from and grow their education. They offer many extracurricular courses as well. For example welding, construction, music, art, and business to name a few. The sports culture at Nyssa High is like no other. I was grateful to be surrounded by an administration that cared about my future.

I think Nyssa High School is a great school with some amazing teachers. Since it's a small school and a small town everyone knows each other so there is no bullies at this school. The teachers at Nyssa High School are really dedicated to helping their students succeed, and that the school has a lot of great extracurricular activities to choose from. Although some of the students create separate groups, when it comes to pep assemblies we all get together for some fun!!!

My experience from going to Nyssa High School has been very good. I am in many clubs and activities from agriculture, to science, and math. There is diversity and many clubs that help the minorities. The teachers at the school are very involved and are great teachers. They want their students to exceed and go to college. The school also has many clubs and sports programs. We have the best facilities in our district and possibly the state too.

After reading the previous reviews, I freel that the reviewers are disgruntled parents or former students who felt they weren't treated fairly or as they felt justly. I have a child in the school currently, and feel that they have been treated fairly, justly, and equally compared to the other studen...

So weird, it's obvious this school has a set way of doing things. The majority of the school is white conservative kids who are just flat out disrespectful. Class starts at 9:05 and when I get there at around 9:00 everyone's already in class it's so odd. Teachers are all white with some hispanics. N...
