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 have had a great high school experience. The best part, personally, was student involvement and all of the friends I have made because of our small tight-knit community. The worst part was the cafeteria food.

Thomaston High School is, overall, a pretty nice school. Most of the teachers care for your education and will gladly share their experiences with you to help you learn better. The school would benefit from better college preparation, however. I feel like that it is lacking.

I graduated from Thomaston high in 2015 and I was captain of the softball and field hockey team my senior year!! I was apart of the softball team when we won the state championship in 2014! I loved every minute of my experience at thomaston high school and if it was possible I would do it all over again! I was a straight A student who enjoyed participating in extracurriculars!

Bullying is a definitive problem at this school. 11 and 12 yr olds have to ride the same bus as 16-18 yr olds and they are constantly picked on and physically abused without reprisal from the school administration. I normally call the Police when this happens. Consider other schools for your childre...
