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.

Plainville is a good high school with a lot of educational opportunities, however many people in the school are inconsiderate of others emotions and can be extremely rude.

My favorite parts about Plainville High School were how willing they were to adapt based on student feedback. The best example of this is the after school activities and school dances. In my time at Plainville High School, many clubs were created and old ones were improved upon.

The school is decent with great teachers who actually care about the students. A good selection of classes are available to all and the school in general has a good atmosphere. Though there can be a few things done on how some students act and some choices the school makes , it's still a good high school

My experience with this school was awesome. I attended this school for all four years and I never had any big issues with it. I graduated in the top 15% of the class and I am now attending UConn. Plainville High School taught me more than I could imagine and the atmosphere was comfortable.
