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.

Olean High School is a run of the mill high school. Food is bad, tech is outdated, courses do not prep you for college. But teachers and faculty are kind and helpful to those who put in effort

Olean High School is quite average, at best. Teachers are not chosen very selectively, which leaves room for a lot of issues between staff and students.

Overall, my experience at Olean High School has been dismal.
