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.

Madison Middleschool was a good school, but there were some things I didn't like. One main thing that I didn't like were the teams, we had. They would seperate the students into three teams. It was good to get to know a small number of people, but I would have liked having a more open school, where we all worked together.
