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 loved my high school experience. I was actively involved in basketball and track and field programs at my high school. I also joined art programs. I feel appreciated and had a good rapport with my fellow students. Overall a great experience.

Spotswood High School is a good enough school for the town's size. The school is small and the hallways are a bit jammed with students when switching classes. I would like to see teachers and guidance counselors motivating students more. I would also like to see more classes catered to specific areas of interest.

My experience at Spotswood High School is great. I love the variety of clubs and activities that we have at our school. There are also various ways to get involved in the community to help out other people. I love how our school is inclusive of all students and everyone is treated with respect. I would like to change the number of bathrooms we have in our school. And I want there to be more sports teams for our school. This will allow more people to show their unique talents.
