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.

Bullying hardly ever happens at Independence. Everyone is very nice and accepting. It is a wonderful environment to learn. We have a police officer who is there most of the time just for safety reasons. We don't have a school nurse but our health teacher is very knowledgeable.
