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.

My overall high school experience has been pretty good. I have loved most, if not all of my teachers. They are always easy to reach and willing to help. I can confidently say that a Sharon High School education opens the door for many opportunities---teachers and advisors are available to help draft resumes, college applications, apply for scholarships, etc.

I transferred to Sharon in the middle of high school. I have mixed feelings about it, but objectively speaking it's a good school. The teachers are (mostly) kind and caring, with a few exceptions. The student body is kind of sucky, but I think that has to do with the privileges most of them have had their whole life, and it's just part of high school. Overall it's not the worst, though I do have quite a few complaints about the school.

Two kids went thru Sharon School system, k-12. They were well prepared for college academically, but more importantly they were exposed to classmates and families of many different cultures and religions and learned a great deal from these interactions.

Our whole family LOVED Heights! Every single morning my daughter would literally run to school! I was very impressed with academic progress of my kid, but what I miss the most are people of Heights! Teachers and administration were extremely supportive, professional and kind!
