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.

Its your average high school. It's small enough where most people know everyone, but not so small that you feel isolated from the world. The career center offers many great programs, and it is very easy to get involved.

I had a really bad tussle with racism and just hating high school here and the experience. But other than that it helped shape me into the woman I am today, able to make some smart decisions and to keep moving forward.

I went to Sault Area High School from 2016-2020 and I loved it there! I was apart of many clubs which were amazing and well lead. I had wonderful teachers throughout all of my high school years.
