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.

Tolar is a small 2a school with a lot of diversity and culture. Tolar has a variety of different classes and programs to put you on the right path to success. There are many opportunities in Tolar, the education is great and very hands-on, the sports are fun and exiting, and we have a strong agriculture program. Due to the small size of Tolar, everyone can be very involved in the classroom. Overall, Tolar is a fun, safe place for every student, athlete, and teacher.

At Tolar High School I strive to be a light in the darkness. I am thankful that I have been put in this place, although it does present its challenges. The school population is somewhat rural, and not extremely diverse. I do respect my administration, who I have observed work really hard to improve the school yearly. Despite some downfalls, I think that Tolar High School has potential to be great in the coming years, and I expect improvement and growth.

I would HIGHLY recommend Tolar Elementary. We moved out of state and my daughter tells me almost every day how much she misses her school and her teacher. We unfortunately move a lot and this is by far the best school I have every come across. (Her eldest sibling has already graduated.) I was so imp...
