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.

Princeton for me often felt like there were not many teachers in my corner. The worst of it would be teachers singling out students. I can name a handful who singled out a few students over the years. The best for me was choir and speech. For me, preforming was important. I'd like to see a change in heart of how teachers at the high school treat students.

They truly try their best, and think they know what is best. The try to get student input but no change really takes place. College readiness is lacking. However, music program is amazing.

Great group of people in a small town setting. School is small enough that everyone knows everyone, but big enough to offer a wide range of credits to suit various wants/needs. I graduated from here and really appreciated the support of the staff as well as all of the various options available to me...

Princeton has a great art, drama, and music programs that most schools would die for. It is a wonderful school with a better admin then most schools.
