Andover High School is incredible. Teachers want to teach here, families want to move to Andover BECAUSE of Andover schools, the overall experience that I had as a student is why I plan to move back to Andover before my children are school-age. If you have the opportunity to live in Andover and allow your kids to get their education here--do it. You'll be thankful for a lifetime.

This is our first year at AHS. We have had a couple of amazing teachers, Civics, Math & English have been hard working & wonderful teachers! We have unfortunately had a horrible experience with science. The lack of experience here has been evident on a daily basis. Very unprofessional and inappropriate comments made by the teacher on a regular basis. When questioned, the teacher avoids answering. The administration has yet to respond as well. It is evident that the teachers at this school are not monitored. The great teachers do amazing things for the students and their education. The poor teachers can do whatever they want and are not held accountable for their actions. If I could choose my children's teachers, we could have a great experience. Since we can't - this will be our last year here. We can't HOPE on an annual basis that we MIGHT GET A GOOD TEACHER. It's just not an option when you have high expectations for your child's future.

Great location & nice new building. The rating at this school is based on the amazing families in the community that make up the student population. The scores HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TEACHERS!!! Honestly, the laziest teachers we have ever worked with in our lives! The kids watch movies instead of learning. There are little to NO textbooks. Honors students are favored and the rest of the students are left to fend for themselves. If you want your kids to go to a school where they are completely on their own - this is for you. If you want a school where there are passionate & caring teachers who actually TEACH your child & prepare them for college - GO ELSEWHERE!!!

The best school ever. My child has had the education of a life time with this high school. My child has had great teachers. I can tell that the teachers are doing a fantastic job at doing what they are there for. They have good discipline, education skills, and more. I recommend this school big time to parents with high school children. Overall an amazing school.
