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.

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.

Tech School, so there is little change of classes to take in your time. Doesn't offer any of the "extra-curricular" classes outside of the standard classes.

Bristol Plymouth is an outstanding school. The best part about Bristol Plymouth is how welcoming everyone is. When I first attended this school as a freshman all of the upper class man where extremely helpful. They were always sure to answer any questions you had about the school. During the month of August Bristol Plymouth has numerous events the freshman can attend. These events help the freshman become more familiar with their new surroundings before school starts. The students who run these events are called the student ambassadors. The student ambassadors helped me so much my freshman year. I decided to become a student ambassador to help the other incoming freshman. The only thing I would change about Bristol Plymouth is I wish they gave more students the opportunity to become a student ambassador. As of this year we only have 58 student ambassadors. I hope to see many more students get that opportunity in the near future.

My overall experience at Bristol-Plymouth Regional Technical School has been amazing. I cannot say enough about the teachers and how accommodating and understanding they are. Although the sports teams aren't the best skill wise it still makes you feel like you are a part of a family.

When i taught there, besides from all the violence the teachers portrayed, it was an overall good school, students ruled the school, fights broke out. I highly recommend it.
