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.

Although Springfield High has not been the best 4 years, it is not the worst. The best part of the school is the friends you make and the few teachers who genuinely care and want you to succeed. The worst part of the campus is the administration who only care for themselves and a select few students, most of the teachers do not want to help students and act as if they despise teaching. I would like to see an improvement in sports and club activity.

Springfield High School is a small school with a small loving community. However, I feel as though my education was not adequate in preparing me for college courses and work.

For our family we love that Springfield is a small close community. "Small Town Big Heart" our kids have been together since Pre-K and they look out for one another. The teachers and faculty are amazing!
