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.

As a student at Corcoran High School, I will be eternally grateful for the support that my teachers have shown me. The school is full with helpful teachers and peers. The clubs that they offer are part of the Pear Support Groups, where we as students meet to discuss about issues that are affecting us and how we can alter the school.

What I love bout Corcoran is that we are all one big family. We all love each other an look out for one another. Also the administration are like are parents, they are so supportive and they show they care. They never let us down ! They make sure we are always on the right track and they make sure everyone is happy and safe. Corcoran has the best support Yates when it comes to sports and fundraising or any other kind of extracurricular activity. Corcoran is just the best school. I wouldn't change anything about it.
