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.

Salida has lots of classes to offer and are branching out all the time with CMC to create more opportunities for students. The staff is also quite nice and there isn't a person in the school you couldn't go to if you needed help with a problem of any kind. However, I feel they could do more after school activities such as clubs. We have clubs now during the day but it would work quite better if we did them after school. I think this could help students build bonds with others who share the same interests.

My high school was amazing. All of the teachers wanted to help you and the school had so much involvement in student lives. I learned so much. We also had the opportunity to take CMC classes which was really nice.

Salida has a great learning atmosphere and the teachers are very hands-on. I have enjoyed attending for the past 6 years. They have many clubs that I am active in such as the National Honors Society and Interact Club. I haven't gotten much help in terms of applying for scholarships.
