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.

A majority of the students do not seem to care about their academics. Most of the students just want to pass the class and graduate, not stride for any higher accomplishments.

For such a small school, the sports and clubs available is not too shabby. I have a great experience playing sports here and my friends have had great times in clubs.

Overall my experience at this school has been great, as a teenager it can be hard at times to get through high school and continue to enjoy school, at Poland it makes the environment very open to anyone and welcoming to parents who are concerned on there children's learning. My school is unique because it is a very small school with huge community involvement. I would choose this school over again because how close I have become to people and my experience was great.

I rate this school terrible. The staff doesn't care about your children, unless you are part of the local clique.
