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 school it's self isn't too bad. The teachers each have their own way of teaching students in a way that is best to better the student. The students themselves on the other hand, are something else. But its like that at any school you go to. Its definitely better than most schools though. Overall it's not a bad school but the students can be interesting.

Its a nice school and but it has some issues like every other school. The facilities are nice but they are limiting. Its great that every student has a school-issued chromebook.

I like Rice High School because it is small and you can get to know everybody quickly. There are no strangers and it is easy to recognize who is new to the school and who is not. I don't like Rice High School because of the administration and athletic department. The school focuses on one sport and bullies those who are not into what they want you to be into. The administration is well aware but does nothing about this. Of all the issues, this is the main issue that I see.
