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 am a graduate of DATA and if it weren't for this school and the teachers I would have dropped out entirely. The program for film was out of this world and I had many job opportunities. They helped me excel in every avenue they could even though I was undiagnosed with ADHD and manic depressive disorder at the time.

Title 1 schools receive more funding for spec...

Once I joined thi...

My granddaughters are attending this school and will graduate this year (2021). They have attended since they were sophomores. They have both done so well academically at this school with the small class size. The teachers are amazing. This last 1.5 year of virtual learning has been difficult for ma...
