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.

I love my freshman year it was a good start to my high school career. The teachers were so nice and the classes were rigorous and challenging, making me expand my learning curve. I'm beyond grateful for choosing the school because I made lifelong friends. I had peers showing me the way and teaching me the good and the bad and how everything is not forever.

The best part is the diversity on campus and the wide variety of clubs and activities with RHS & UHS combined. The worst part has to be the way the monitors treat the students and how old and worn down the school really is. I hope to see the monitors no longer closing the bathrooms during lunch (when we are expected to go) and the male monitors not being extremely friendly with the girls on campus. I would also like to see the district take care of our school and fix what needs to be fixed.

It is an average school, but it is not safe. There are school violence every now and then and since University High School, a very respectable school, shares the same campus as Rincon, they get affected by it. Some of the students don't have good manners and are not taught of basic etiquette. There are a lot of couples that make out EVERYWHERE.

I love Rincon High School. I am currently a Freshman there. My cousin and her three older brothers graduated from Rincon, they all loved it as well. My younger cousin will be a freshman next year following in my footsteps. All the staff at Rincon are very friendly and willing to help with any proble...

I switched to Rincon during my freshman year of high school. It is a really good school. The teachers are caring and motivate you to learn more. I would definitely recommend this school to people I know.
