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.

Enjoyed Pelham High School. It's not just part of the Pelham schools but a part of the Pelham Community. Teachers are helpful and classes are at the right level.

Everyone, students and teachers, are all very welcoming towards new students like I was in the 9th grade. Also the band program is one of the best programs I've ever seen.
