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 love the close-knit community of FCLA, which is especially noticeable in the relationships you form with your teachers. The family-like atmosphere helps me focus and learn to the best of my ability. I enjoy the teaching style, as it differs from traditional public school teachings. We create many projects in FCLA, but that is not the main focus. The main focus of FCLA is the integrated learning. I love that because of this style of learning, I get credit for every single thing I do.

I've had an amazing experience in the Fox Cities Leadership Academy. The smaller community is a huge benefit because you become closer with your teachers and peers. Your education is very important to the teachers at FCLA and they are willing to help you with anything. The school curriculum here is presented in a more interactive and fun way which keeps students interested.
