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.

Olympia High School is a great school to go to. All of my teachers want to see me succeed and make it somewhere in life. They also prepare me for the real world of politics and money and college also.

Me as a musician appreaciate that olympia has lots of equipment and spaces where i can express my love for music. The school has given me the opportunity to learn saxophone, drums, guitar, and more instruments. One thing i would like to see changed is sometimes things are not scheduled the right way or administration take odd decisions, either way im very grateful with Olympia
