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.

There are a few clubs and activities for the students. Until two years ago, when we were given a new principal, there weren't any clubs or activities. This is a huge improvement, hopefully there will be more choices and they will keep improving over time.

My teachers have poor communication and are not very helpful. So with that, I started to take all my classes at the community college that I could. My college teachers are much better then my high school teachers. Some teachers at my school are okay, but they are not explaining how to do what they expect us to do since this new common core came out.

There is always someone at the front desk, which over looks the front doors. These are the only doors into the school which stay unlocked to anyone going in or out. The other doors are only unlocked to people going out. With this system everyone is seen before they can have access to any of the classrooms.

Wm. Finch has always been our homeschool so I as a parent could home school my children. I Teach them and never worry about where my children are. We have a great teacher that helps us if we need any extra help!
