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.

Really loved this school. I didn't realize how good I had it until I moved away from the Bay Area and heard all the horror stories about other schools. Every teacher I had cared immensely and there's a few I keep up with to this day. They're invested and they're good people.

I think that it would be very nice if there was better food available to all students on campus and if they kept this food affordable.

MA has been a great place for personal development in academics and sports. There are loads of great teachers and coaches who care about helping students succeed. Definitely has the most athletic potential in the league.
