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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

I enjoyed my first two years of highschool but by the end of it, there was too much drama and not enough punishment for the ones starting it. I have been getting bullied for the past few months and not much action has been taken. Although besides this issue I enjoyed my years at OHS, with the teachers and activities included.

I've enjoyed my time at Opelika High School. I have really grown academically since starting, thanks to the teachers and administrators. The coursework, I feel, has prepared me for college. I have been in the band and have loved that experience. I also played baseball, didn't enjoy that as much due to politics, which should really change. To me, that has been the worst part.

While my overall experience thus far has been a good one, there are things that I'd change. The food is less than subpar, there isn't much ethnic diversity when it comes to clubs and such either. I do feel safe while at school, and feel like I'm being well prepared for life after high school in a college sense, but not in a real world sense.
