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 like how the school is very diverse and students from all over cochise county go to Tombstone High School. I also like how the teachers actually like their job, enjoy teaching, and care about the students. However we are short on teachers but I like how the principle and other teachers are stepping in to teach the classes we don't have teachers for.

Tombstone High School students behave as though we are a family. We are welcoming to all of our foreign exchange students and we treat our classmates with respect. The faculty is caring and understanding, all teachers are open-minded and welcoming.
