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.

So far these past 3 and a half years have been the most fundamental and building blocks to my dream of becoming an Educator, and I cannot wait till college to begin my journey, and Spalding high school has done an excellent job keeping my head up and reaching beyond to achieve my dream.

I wish spalding would be a bit more organized when it comes to stuff like the buses coming late to take you to the college for classes for example. This is bad because many times students misses their classes which isnt good for college because u miss a whole section of infomation and somethimes it can be hard to get back in track.

Spalding High School is a school that most people don't give a chance, but once you live the high school experience and get to know more people, your opinion will change. I honestly can say I wouldn't change anything about my school because I am grateful for everything they are providing me for the future. #GOJAGS

SHS does not take pride in anything. Disrespectful students, limited discipline, and poor staff. The school also has very little concern for athletics and band. It is sad when you go to a game and are able to count out the number of people there on your fingers.
