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.

As a senior now, my experience at Augusta has been very fulfilling and enjoyable. From kindergarten to the 12th grade, I have had nothing but constant support, enrichment, and an honorable learning experience. The staff is remarkable and it has been a real privelage to attend this school. There's not many recommendations I can make as far as any adjustments that may need to be made. As long as this small school never loses it's tight knit support, I believe it will continue to thrive.
