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.

I have been a student at the school for four years now and as long as complaints go, i have none. I have been very lucky to have teachers and staff members who care not just for me, but for other students around me. There is so much character in some of the teachers and for that, i adore them. I believe Pomona High School to be a good school. There are obviously areas where improvement is needed, but I'm sure that everything will result just fine.

Pomona High School proved to be a very good beginning for my 2 daughters. Both graduated and continued their education through college. My oldest went on to earn a masters degree in business. My youngest, now 32 years old, went on to graduate and is now a successful writer. I truly hope that the com...
