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 went to several other schools around Sugar Salem and it was by far the best one that I attended. The academics paired with the athletics were arguably the best in the entire state.

My best experiences of Sugar-Salem High School was being apart of the soccer team and meeting all my friends. I loved being able to find happiness on the soccer team as player and manager. My worst experiences were dealing with loads of homework on top of a job or sports. In the future I hope to see my siblings go there and be able to choose from more classes and being able to have fun in high school and not rush.
