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.

Alright overall. Some teachers know what they're doing and others can get on your nerves. Could do better in terms of academics.

I was in Student council and i really enjoyed that class because everyone was friends even til this day. There should have been more groups and clubs probably but for the most part it was exceptional.

Most teachers at Santa Rita have given me the knowledge that I have kept in my head today. Alot of the teachers take the time to get to know their students and create an open environment were they are easily approachable. They create an organized lesson plan to follow throughout the day and ask students regularly if there is something that they could change for the next time to make lessons go more smoothly. Overall I have had a great experience with my past teachers at Santa Rita.
