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.

My time at Antelope Valley High school has been great. The teachers have been very validating and guiding. My only complaint is that some clubs and classes I am interested in aren't available. That isn't very pleasant, but I will try to make my own club this upcoming school year.
