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.

My overall experience at Upland has been both academically diverse and sufficient. The school offers many top level courses and high achieving extracurriculars. I've really enjoyed being apart of their marching band and partaking in their AP courses with their amazing teachers.

Overall after four years attending I would say my high school experience has been good but not memorable. The famous is amazingly huge. Many of the teachers do not like their jobs and are irritating by kids but they are trying . There were some stand out teachers that cared and made me want to learn

Attending Upland High School all four years I have definitely learned a lot. The staff is a hit or miss, you either love or hate them, the students are okay you just have to meet the right crowd and the work itself is not too hard.

This school is terrible. The teachers do not do their job, the students are despicable, and this school is way too overcrowded. I'm so glad I transferred my kids to Rancho Cucamounga High School. I would not recommend this high school to anyone, and I feel bad for people who have to attend.
