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.

Sweet Home is great at getting kids were aren't academically achieved involved in stuff. Like our forestry or agricultural programs are good. But students who are strong in academics don't get as much. My math class doesn't offer honors and we only have Spanish as a language class, and we suffer in keeping a Spanish for long. We could just try to give the academic strong kids a push.

I like that I am able to have the availability to take college courses, and I enjoy all of the classes that are provided for us and electives we can choose from. Something I feel should improve would be the staff that care more about giving out their curriculum than helping students understand the material and taking the time to connect and actually act like they care about their job

The sports are also a great opportunity, however, the problem with this particular High School is the student body. at least 50% of the body could care less about their education, which make people like myself a target, beca...

I went to this school and hated every minute of it. The majority of teachers are close minded and discourage individualism. The students all have to fit into their cliques and it you dont praise jesus then you most likely wont be in the "popular" group. i wouldnt recommend going to this school unles...
