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.

Most teachers in Sahuarita High School are nice. My biotechnology teacher allows us to go on field trips, which is my best parts of my experience there. My worst experience is that some students here don't care about school, and one particular teacher makes his class very easy for me. I want the quality of the school to improve because I don't think it feels like a high-quality high school. Other than that, it's a solid school.

Kids have plenty of opportunities to improve their grade and get help with assignments through after school tutoring, Mustang Power Hour and normal teacher office hours. School spirit has improved and the sport...
