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 with my high school is that it is very welcoming and does not let you feel left out of nothing. All the teachers are well help you work things out even if it's not the subject they teach. The teachers will actually build up a bond with the students to have a better understanding of each other.My best experience is whenever I need some help with anything they will try their best to get the job done, like if i want to apply to a job. The worst part is that we do not have many fun and active activities in school like little pep rally's or a free day so we can play a sport outside with everyone.I would like to see more activities and more opportunities to take a break for at least one day.

Being properly prepared for college is one good thing about Pelham High School, but there are other classes not offered that could benefit students such as the musical arts.
