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.

South Side is a very good environment for growth and learning. The staff is very kind and supportive and spends a lot of unpaid time to help you. South side is a small one A school but they give opportunities that put bigger schools to shame.

Parental involvement is non existent. It is not encourage or wanted. They have there own little click and that is all...
