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.

Good academics, clubs, events, and sports. Facilities are not always functional but are generally sufficient. I would say school culture is good as well.

Good school. Teachers care and challenging academics. No grade inflation. Diverse population but some self-segregation among students

The best part of Grandview was getting to not be at Grandview. The Cherry Creek Innovation center was great. Grandview itself was the most basic, mediocre white American suburb school you could imagine. Not outstandingly amazing, but not bad either.

Terrible school. Politics are insane. Discrimination is ridiculous. Boys Basketball program is a joke. If you are a minority, do not send your kid to this Grandview. They overload them with homework and they don’t care about the kids.
