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.

Horrific. People in town will tell you that AMS is the worst of the schools, but they undersell how bad it is. Stay away if you can.

This is an outstanding school. The teachers almost all seem to be very motivated and passionate about their jobs, and the students seem to be quality kids who work hard and have bright futures ahead of them. A bit heavy on the homework, but it helps to prepare them for high school
