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.

Perham Senior High is an amazing school with multiple opportunities. The classes offered allow for a wide range of skills and abilities taught by teachers who truly care for their job and the future of their students. It's unlikely that one finds themself emotionally and physically drained from school due to the constant care from all staff. Everyone has bad days and the staff offer their help to those who feel left out.
