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.

I attended Brea Jr. High school and I loved it. They made my 7th and 8th grade years very fun and educational. I was able to be a teachers assistant both my years and I believe I have used some of the things I learned in my adult years. All the teachers I had were nice and very helpful when needed. I enjoyed the way I was taught.

The teachers themselves are very average in what they do, with perhaps a few notable exceptions.
