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.

Overall, I would say that James Logan is a relatively nice public school. I'm heavily involved in the performing arts, and can see that the departments are a higher caliber compared to other public schools around me. The community feels a little clique-y, but it isn't too difficult to find your place here. In terms of change, I'd like to see more recognition for the performing arts program, specifically drama and choir.

James Logan is diverse, unique, and welcoming. Expontaneous when it comes to the fashion sense of its students.

This school comes with much diversity and had the chance to build multiple connections with all sorts of people but from time to time, there was a fear of public safety.

The education at JLHS is subpar. Rather than giving the students a strong and solid foundation, the curriculum is heavily geared to pushing teachers person world views. This infiltrates courses from history to English to their required Life Skills and ethnic studies courses. It also takes time away...
