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.

Good school with very good diversity. The diversity helps students prepare for life in ways that other schools don't have.

I am attending Pelican Rapids High School this year as a junior. I love the diversity and the friendly personalities throughout the school. However the students are great, I do not like the teachers very much. They are not very friendly and tend to favor students, especially athletes. Some teachers give special treatment and tend to make students feel left out.

Bullying is not stopped. Policies inflexible. Staff always right, no matter what. It has always depended on who you are and how much money you have. 4 day week has done nothing but make things worse!
