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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

As I had only gone to this school for a year, I can say it was the best decision to transfer to Minarets High School. I loved every person I met and every teacher/ staff member. The campus created such an amazing environment and it allowed me to succeed. I'm so grateful to everyone that was there during my time.

For the 3 years that I have attended Minarets High School I have had an amazing experience. I have made new friends, learned new things that I'd never even think of, and overall have one of the best high school experiences that I could ask for. My brother and my sister both went to this high-school and we have never had any complaints about the school or teachers themselves. I love this school and I would recommend it to any student looking for a great quality high school education.

The school offers opportunities for students as well as a safe space to grow. However, they fail to properly explain and demonstrate how to reach out and complete tasks to get involved.
When going to this school your last name matters. Very cliquey administrative structure. Principal is good, teachers are new just about every year. We had had 4 superintendents in the past 5 years. They are never in compliance with a lot of stuff!
Minarets make sure to have everyone feel like they belong and are part of the school the best experience you could have is to join a sport or club and don't be shy everyone there is friendly they may not look or sound friendly but once you engage with people more it becomes so easy and fast to knowi...

From how much the teachers genu...
