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.

Sabino High School is a nice well kept school. Most of our students take pride in being Saber-cats because it seems as almost a privilege.Our school is generally very clean and all admin and students get along.

First public I've been to, and it's the best choice I've made. Freshman I was quite scared but definitely felt welcomed. Their school is very good and a lot of people participate in school activities and do a lot of things that make the high school experience so much more enjoyable. I'm African American and I've never felt like I didn't belong. The school makes sure that the kids have safety and make sure the parents know what is going on in the school. I'm glad I chose to go to public school and it was Sabino I choose to go

Sabino was an interesting school, a lot of the people were kind of rude, at least the popular kids. Not very ethnically diverse though. Mainly Caucasian students. Some of the teachers were great, others not so much. Administration tried to be helpful.

We have had very many perspectives of the school through the years.Bottom line...

I have multiple mental health issues, and combined with being transgenders, the students are not great at all. I have seen that maybe 1/5 of the students are sup...

I'm currently a student at Sabino. I'm apart of the 2024 class and it's October 6th, 2022.Sabino is a pretty mediocre school. It doesn't seem to really excel at anything in particular. They do offer a variety of AP classes but all the electives are the run-of-the-mill ones you see at every high scho...
