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.

Rocky Ford Junior/Senior High school is really welcoming. Its a small school so you can't get lost easily. Everyone is honestly really nice, plus the community is very supportive too. The teachers are always there to help you if needed like this year, I couldn't take a science class I wanted and the science teacher there said I could take it online and he would tutor me it has become really helpful. The only thing I would change is getting better books for the classes.
