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 made great connections with students as well as teachers. My school has given me the opportunity to take college level classes and earn college credit for those classes. My school also has given me the opportunity to take AP exams to further earn college credit in that respected class. I feel my teachers support me, push me to be better, and educate me to their best ability.

The teachers are amazing and all help prepare you for life out of high school. Also they help prepare you for college content.

I enjoy going to school at Maize South for many reasons however there are many things that need to improve. For one, there are too many students for the size of the school. Each class sits around 30 students and often times there aren't enough desks for all the students. Also, there is only one exit to get out of the school so it is very hard to get out of the school. In addition to all of that, the administration is very strict. The students are only allowed to say a few things at sport events and it makes it very hard to enjoy the competitive side of sports.

I really like the 4 classschedule for high school and the variety of options offered for the students. The career academy is available to all high school students in the district, regardless of which...

Extremely poor. If I didn’t have the opportunity to transfer to MHS, I would have never made it through high school.

My school is MSHS and i am a freshman there this year. I went to MSES and MSMS. You can not find another school as great as these schools! There are a lot of extra activities! The high school already feels like family and I cannot wait to see what the years to come bring me.
