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.

This school poorly schedules important dates, making them inconvenient. Especially when it comes to before school events.

As I am only a sophomore at Skyview High School, my experience here will most likely change but being a student here is pretty rewarding. I am thankful to my teachers in my freshmen year because of them, I feel like I am set up for success later on in my school education journey. They taught me a variety of skills like teamwork, making me feel like I belong and academics.

The best part of my high school experience was becoming a part of a community that genuinely cares for me. I haven't gone a day in high school feeling left out or like I don't have a group or place that I belong in. I started cross country my freshmen year a week before the school year officially began, and despite never having met any of my new team members, they immediately made me feel welcome and at home. The upperclassmen were especially nice, and one even gave me a tour of the school after our first practice. This has been the theme throughout Skyview. It doesn't matter what your interests or hobbies are, there's a club, sport, or group of people for you. As for the worst part of my high school experience, I was frustrated with the school's focus on SEL time, and while it is a state requirement, the school still took away precious work time outside of the mandatory SEL time to try and enforce the elementary ideas of emotions on high school students.

This is a school that focuses heavily on their sports teams. It does a terrible job with special education. Don’t go here if you are on an IEP, they will not follow your accommodations. I would not recommend Skyview to anyone. They also allow discrimination of LGBTQIA+ students. The teachers are big...

There's a lot of bullying that goes on in and out of this school, even on the school buses.Skyview's School Faculty seems to address these bullying issues with either little or no care at all.And I'm voicing "my opinion" from a past and a very recent experience that involved my child being verbally...
