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.

genuinely the worst school I have ever attended. extremely rude and disrespectful staff, and a complete lack of compassion and sympathy is shown by staff. staff chooses favorites, and you will never be treated equally here. zero diversity, and you will be judged if you are diverse, and teachers will not care.

The teachers at this school know what they're talking about. They handle rowdy students appropriately, and treat you with respect. The teachers also seem to have a good amount of experience. However, the teachers did sometimes get a little too harsh at times. I would say overall the teachers at Plato High School are an excellent.
