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 would love to see PHS expand it's extracurricular offerings. Additionally, diversifying the AP level offerings and improving college preparedness for all students would be huge.

Poultney High School does not have great offerings for students who excel in academics. Students with higher gpas need to advocate for themselves, and by their senior year are stuck taking online classes to fill their schedule.

Poultney High School is a very safe school. Students and visitors would have to wait for the school secretary to allow them access in and then they have to sign in at the main office. Our school had never had cops or security patrolling., only at sporting events. The school nurse is somewhat in her office, however it is hard to catch her at times during the week and afterschool.
