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.

Old orchard beach high school is a very small school. It's nice because you know everyone and can work together easily

Old orchard has its good and bad qualities but with all the small town drama aside it's not a bad school. There's probably less than 300 students so it's easy to get one on one time if needed you just have to show you want to be better.

At OOB, the teachers are fantastic. Most, if not all, grade assignments effectively, offer help and ideas when needed, and they listen. They truly care about their students, and I when I moved here, I was beyond thrilled to have teachers who actually get to know me.
