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.

Onalaska Junior/Senior High School focuses on education the most. Most of the school funds are put on equipment that allow us to learn more efficiently. The school doesn't even have a football team because they think that football will decrease the school high score percentage. The school also has an amazing staff that works together to makschool an eventful place for us students. Last and most importantly the school is very serious about school evacuation and drill. For the pass few years there have been school shooting and bombing throughout Texas and America overall so our principal and school staff are hardcore about those drill. Overall Onalaska Junior/ Senior High School is a great place to attend school.
