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.

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.

My experience at Clay High School could have been better. There were some positive times I had but also some very negative ones. I went through something very traumatic my sophomore year of high school, and I feel like the school and staff didn't really accommodate for that. I think that before staff and administration yells or lectures you for something they should ask maybe if something is wrong first or maybe the reason you are doing what you're doing.

Oregon City Schools are top notch from Pre K through High School. Bus drivers, crossing guards, lunch monitors, teachers, coaches. Availability for assistance with education and training is always available

I liked my overall experience at Clay. I wish they would be more help towards college preparation. The best times were playing 4years of football and the fans we had. The worst was my Freshman year was the Covid year and very hard and feel like we missed a lot of experiences.

The teachers do not help students who need more one on one with certain areas they are studying. The sports programs are very expensive and even if your child makes the teams does not guarantee they will play but you still have to pay for them to sit the bench. If you are family or friends with some...

Clay is an excellant school with teachers that do really care about their students. In response to previous post, new gym was built around 1990, and football uniforms are bought by the athletic boosters. Parent involvement is what you make of it, some parents are very involved and some could care le...
