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.

Staff including most of the teachers dont know or dont care about the subjects they are teaching. They just dont teach any more. Its so sad. Our children are the future and they are not even taught what they need to be.

I withdrew my student.I will not issue a "blank check" for teachers to wrongfully punish my child, the principal refuses to cooperate in validating the legitimacy of discipline when issued.

Yerington High School is a terrible school. The curriculum and teachers leave something to be desired. Small town politics ruin the school's potential of excelling. Please do not let your children go to school here, it would be an insult to their intelligence.
