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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

There was a lot of problems with fights, every first quarter we would see a fight that caused the school to go into lockdown each time. The teachers were nice the classes weren't to hard but nothing revolutionary, not like it needs to be though.

Tucson High is a very good school if you're interested in performing arts or sports. It's a very large school, with over 3,000 students. Teachers and staff are plenty supportive, and there are lots of options for college readiness, with college campuses visiting the school often. However, student fights do occur very often here. There's definitely no shortage of security guards. Overall, not that bad of a school.

I would like the restrooms to be cleaner and have mirrors and for teachers to engage more with their studnets and not only assign work because it makes the class boring. Almost all teachers are focused on assigning work rather than establishing a good and communicative relationship with all of their students
Very concerned about the safety of students at this school. During this current school year, there have already been 3 REAL lockdowns, including a student being caught with a knife. Fights are not dealt with appropriately, with at least 1 fight per week. A very small amount of teachers are actually...

Coming from a sophmore at this school, it's not a place I would recommend. I have ADHD and require some things that most students don't need. Such as more test time, the dates to turn things in should be a little later for me because I have such a hard time focusing. But honestly, the only reason I...
My grandkids chose this school based on what we had heard was a focus on academics. What in reality turns out to be the case, is this place is just another epic failure and misplaced priorities. Teachers that miss substantial days, substitutes that have no access to roll call and as such end up with...
