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.

It's a very small school. There are only 19 kids in the high school so we all are together. Everyone knows and looks out for one another and the teachers know all of us on a personal level.

Going to school in Thorne Bay Alaska was exciting. The classes where small enough that a student was able to receive one on one help with school work. No one had to try out for team sports, everyone was able to play. Going from a huge school with up to 30 to 40 students to a small school was the best thing that ever happened to me. My grades improved and I received the help that I needed when I was struggling in classes.

Principal Rob O'Neal is leaving and my kids and I are so sad. The school looks better than it ever has and the climate is one of the most inviting and friendly I have ever seen at a school.
