Niche grades and rankings are calculated using dozens of public data sets and millions of reviews. Niche data scientists and user researchers rigorously analyze data and user opinions to assess the key aspects of K-12 Schools, Colleges, and Places to Live. Every month, millions of students and families use the Niche grades and report cards to find the right school or neighborhood.
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.

There is a lot of student involvement in sports at our school. If you do not play sports you are not as popular, and you do not have as many friends. There is a lot of peer pressure in our school! People do things just to fit in, and be cool.

We have three different club in our school. If you do not participate in one of them the teachers will hold a grudge against you, and some will not let you be in there classes if you are not in there club.

The food sometimes is not very good. It is usually somewhat healthy. The cafeteria is always clean, but we only get an option of one main course meal that day, if you do not like that meal there is only side dishes that you can choose from.
