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.

I started at Sheridan my sophomore year, and I am a senior at the moment; graduating in 2025. I like the school itself and the layout of everything. The teachers can be alright sometimes, the adminsistration was the worst part though. They were very strict and had unnecessary rules that don't help us learning. Admin and some teachers don't care, bullying and drugs are quite a big issue yet they don't do much about it.

As a senior who experienced all four years of high school at Sheridan High School I feel like I have a good understanding of this school district. This school is very special. Sheridan progresses each year, especially with the school. We have new buildings within the past 6/7 years, there's almost a new club or new sport every year. Some things I would change is some of the faculty and dining. But mostly this is a very good school with many opportunities.

I attended multiple schools as a child. Sheridan was by far the best! My children now go to Sheridan. The children of the teachers that were there when I was a kid now teach my children. It is an amazing school district (East End included).

I have graduated from Sheridan High one year ago. And I will say of my four years of being there were horrible. They have the "no child left behind" policy which they do not follow. There are some good teachers who are sweet and genuinely care for their students, over all most don't. The system that...

I am a freshman at Sheridan and I love it. I've been in the Sheridan School District since Kindergarten. The education that I am getting is great. The teachers are mostly great. The band program is wonderful and I would recommend this school for most people. The one thing that I do not like about it...
