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.

Overall Santa fe is a great school. I have had some great teachers and experiences there. I have to say my senior year has been the worst year. I cheered every year till my senior year. Its one of the small town schools depends on who you know to get anywhere. You have teacher pets that make your life miserable and even some teachers participate in the bullying. I have done my best to represent the school with grace and poise. I have brought the school lots of regcognition with my shooting awards and by being the mule day queen.

Santa Fe Unit School is a very friendly school and a great family school. It's not very diverse racially but overall it's a very good public school.

There is a lot of bullying that takes place and the teachers ignore it. The janitors do not clean very well. We have only one police worker at our school but he is just our SRO, we do not have protection if a shooting were to happen.

I am so disappointed in the school's leadership (principal) and taking away things from the students, including the very few good teachers that are left.
