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.

Millbrook High School is a great school with many amazing opportunities for students. With the inclusion of the IB Program, many clubs, athletic sports teams, and several ways to get involved in the school, it is hard not to find a way to make new friends or meet new people.

I came to Millbrook in the middle of my sophomore year and it was tough. I was told nothing of what was needed to go onto the next few years, regarding the volunteer hours needed to graduate. The school lacks major communication with its students. I would like them to improve that.

Not a bad school but there are better and safer schools out there. Best part were some of the people and teachers I met over the years, and the worst parts were also the teachers but ones that didn't really like teaching.

It is rigorous with a large amount of homework, if your child can succeed through this progr...

Outside of the IB programme, the classes are subpar at best. Students spend the majority of time sitting around on their phones or napping and not doing any work. Admin appears to support teachers but when it comes down to it, nothing changes. Students that need special services are often overlooked...

I'm a current student and my overall experience at Millbrook has been good at some points and bad at others. My good times so far are most of the people staff/students are friendly, although you may come across a few rude students it's high school so you should sadly expect some kids to be judgy but...
