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 River High School was an excellent school overall, but it wasn't always the greatest. There was a big culture around getting straight As and being in several different clubs, and the kids who didn't were almost looked down upon. Other than that, I wouldn't take back the 4 years that I went there.

Out standing school. I have sent three children through the system and could not be happier. They prepared the kids for their future in college, work, as well as life. There is a reason RRHS is in the top 5 schools in Ohio year after year.
