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.

Honestly, I would like more clubs and acitivities. Not only that but also more academically advanced classes.

I've been attending Soledad High for going on two years, and all I can say is the way you utilize your time here will determine what kind of high school education you receive. If you want to be involved in school clubs/sports here, you have to go looking deep. If you want to do well in your classes, it's on you. Some teachers here are thorough and explain well, but for others it's very hit or miss. If you attend Soledad High, you will be putting more work than the average student to stay on top of your studies/extracurriculars.

Overall, my experience at Soledad High has been good. I have learned what I feel like I needed to learn with academics. However, my brother attended it and it didn't prepare him for college.

I can confidently say that i haven't earned anything this year. 85% of the students here have no goals or aspirations in life and no motivation to learn. I've only just moved here and have see better curriculum in my old elementar...

This school is mediocre at best. To start, the staff. As a whole, the entire district seems to disregard ANY request or concern from a parent or student. Almost every other year, there's a new principal; which just confuses the pacing of how educational and extracurricular programs are managed. SOME...

For the most part, Soledad High School through the years has remained roughly average in regards to the educational quality it offers to all students. Like any school, you only get what you put in. If you work hard in this school, the opportunities can be tremendous considering the preconceived view...

This school is sad to see that instead of getting better it's getting worst.. The administration does not know our community, and they do not want take the time to get to know us. I am a parent that visits the school often, the administration has been very rude to me. They do not acknowledge me or o...
