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.

Sayre Area High School is a very well rounded school in my opinion. From it's amazing teachers that help you relate what you are learning to the real world and treating you as the young adults you are as a student. My fellow peers are generally nice/polite at the very least there is respect among the student body. The sport teams are very passionate and hard working, and the clubs are very active in the community and school it's self. I am glad to get my high school education at this school.

I like how the teachers interact with their students. Instead of just showing up to teach, the teachers make a connection with the students. If I could change something, it'd be the way that the school is ran and how our money is used.

They get away with things other students get punished for. The teachers sit in class and downgrade some studen...

This school is amazing! Some teachers are a little pushy when it comes to doing work but they show that they really care. The authorities are very strict and even for a small school we all care for one another.
