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.

The best parts of my experience have been through sports programs as I tend to gravitate towards athletics. I have enjoyed running track and playing basketball for the school and feel that the school has supported the sports programs at the school well.

Rancho Mirage High School is a fairly new school, so all the facilities and buildings are very well-kept and clean. This school offers a lot of opportunities to get involved in sports, clubs, and many school activities. My overall experience has been positive, and I've been welcomed with open arms at this school. There are both strict and calm teachers, creating a good balance here at Rancho Mirage.

Rancho Mirage High School is a pretty good school overall, but as an arts student, I wish they would cater more towards the arts, as they do have the Helen Gallen Theater, as well as branding themselves as a school that does. I wish they would have more options when it comes to dual enrollment as well.
