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.

Prior Lake was a great high school experience that provided me with the resources and tools I needed to succeed as I prepared for college.

The variety of classes offered is very good. The teachers are all very helpful and attempt to make their classes as fun as possible. The counselors and other stagf are very approachable and try to be as helpful as possible. The food served in the main lines is okay but could be improved, as well as the variety of food served in the main lines could be improved. The bathrooms are often dirty and destroyed due to other students not caring about other people.

My experience at Prior Lake High School is exceptional. The teachers constantly encourage students to strive for success, and that attitude is carried to all sectors of the school. Despite the positive academic environment, the quality of the lunch is mediocre at best, and the water filters are rarely changed.
