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 feel I have had a overall great experience with Olathe High school. Our high diversity has taught me cultures that I never knew of before! With our smaller budget we often don't have the nicest things at our school but through teachers and staff they make up for it.

I loved going here. Are there issues, yes, but it was also very good. There could be improvement when it comes to dealing with the children when it comes to discipline for their actions. It could also use better funding, or using the finder where it should go. Less money to the football team who hasn't won a game in years, and more to the band program who takes home trophies every year.

Two of my children graduated from Olathe High School and one is currently attending; I couldn't choose a better school and am very pleased with the positive outcomes in life my children have endured when dealing with academics.

I talked to a young man today who graduated from Olathe High. He got a full scholarship to a University in Kansas. enough said. Go Olathe!!! not a parent just checking reviews. um, when a young person says full scholarship, that is impressive.

This school appears to me to be an unfortunate example of "the rising tide of mediocrity".
