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.

Compared to other over crowded middle schools in Dutchess County, Rombout offers a small, diverse atmosphere. They offer excellent help to those student that have IEP/504, or just need an intergrated class for a certain subject. The teachers genuinely want you to succeed. There are plenty of after school programs and sports to spark the kids interests. I am very happy to have my children attend this school.
