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.

My high school experience has been okay, but not as exciting as I had hoped. I didn't try out for many activities because I felt I wasn't popular enough to win positions in things like student council. I played in the orchestra for four years, but by my sophomore year, I realized I had fallen out of love with it. It just didn't suit me as I thought it would. Overall, I feel like I've had some boring years, but I'm really hoping that this final year will bring more exciting experiences. I want to make the most of my last chance in high school.

While attending Roma High School, I felt welcomed throughout the campus. This small school allowed me to build a close connection with the faculty, the administration, and the students. The Hispanic culture was apparent throughout my high school years. At Roma High School, we proudly represent our Mexican background and mix it into our daily activities.

It was a very fun experience being in Roma High School. Roma High doesn´t have the greatest diversity since most of the students are hispanic but it does connect us through our culture we have. The teachers here are amazing ,kind, somewhat strict but their great. The school lunch here isn´t the best but I´ve never complained. My most fond memory at Roma High school is being in band. Band is just so different here, the energy we band students express is like nothing else. The Roma band is one the best well-known bands in the valley especially during the marching season. Roma High school is one of the best schools to be at.

I just graduated from RHS and now at UTPA. As far as the education goes RHS is okay. Many of the teachers are certified and they have become more strict on who they hire. School violence is extremely rare. We would have like one at most (rare) two fights a semester. I thought that was a lot but afte...

I graduated from RHS and believe me it is not a GOOD school at all. As I am reading the previous reviews I notice that a lot of the students are lacking in their grammar and spelling skills. Yes, RHS might have good sports programs and a good band, but what about Spelling and Grammar? Students will...
