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.

My experience overall has been well, it's a school full of a good vibe for me. However i feel it lacks a higher level or learning and college readiness for the students, preparation for the future should be better. My best experience have been the people and some teachers and the relationships, i've felt quite comfortable in the environment but there is some students who are discriminating and that brings the experience down. Overall a mediocre school.

It is a lot of fun, there are a lot of school activities for all different kinds of students. All the teachers go out of their way to help all students learn and thrive. If you need help they are right there with you every Sept of the way. The athletic director is very involved in the students and sports they want the students to have good grades and good friends on and off the teams. The councilors are very helpful and all ways ready to help you pick the right classes for you.

The school is full of wide diversity and within its halls is full of interesting people as there are negatives to the social separation but great educational facility.

Pasco HS counselors work with each student to identify the path that best f...

Although I am rating this school as a 3, I still believe this is a good school. When a school is as diverse as Pasco is even the best teachers are needing to differentiate their lessons to accommodate their population. The school probably deserves a 4, but the district is holding it back!

Graduated 2019 and I don’t understand the low reviews? When I attended it was great, many students take AP courses and take college level courses as well. I got many college credits from here that I was able to transfer to UW. Pasco High needs to be given more credit.

I really enjoyed going to this school, but I grew up around a lot of friends from around the area. It's different if you move there and try to fit it. But still enjoyed it, and learned a lot, ended up attending WSU after.
