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've liked my time here at Sabino, it's a small school which honestly really helps for teachers to put more focus to each individual student. We have pretty cool school activities every once in a while but there could definitely be more school spirit.

I loved the one on one learning we were given. Sabino also has many curricular activities they offer. I was on the varsity cheer team for all 4 years of high school,won state twice and our team placed 3rd in the nation. I was also involved in yearbook for 3 years and became co-editor in chief my senior year. Some things I would say Sabino could change would be their cats win policy for student athletes because they miss out on a lot of fun social outings due to the CATS WIN that doesn't allow outings over 20 without it being considered a party and the athlete gets suspended from their season.

My experience at Sabino High School was amazing. I did a variety of clubs and sports which taught me new passions and overall made high school fun. Sabino has a lot of great extracurricular activities for different interests. Along with having great programs , Sabino is also rated an A school for academics. I personally took a lot of AP classes which in the long run helped me get college credit . The teachers at Sabino actually care about your education and helping you succeed.

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

Great school overall. I have a lot of family who graduated from Sabino. As a transgender individual I only somewhat recommend this school. 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...
