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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Going to Gratz Campus for all of my high school career was truly a memorable time even despite going through hardships like COVID-19. The staff do their absolute best to help and give the students the opportunities to succeed in college and in trade school

What I liked about Gratz was that it was very focused on giving students opportunities to succeed and was interested in every student's future. They wanted to make sure we left high school with a clear plan in mind whether it be college, military, or just working straight out of school. I loved the staff there and how it felt almost like a family where everyone cared about one another to a certain point. I would highly recommend students to go to Gratz.

My experience at Simon Gratz was amazing. My 4 years has been nothing but wonderful things. I would like to see more activities going on and organizations as well.
