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 only attended Eagle Ridge Academy in person for 2.5 years because of covid. During my time there, I mostly enjoyed my experience. Being able to participate in sports and attend higher level classes is exactly what I was looking for in my high school experience. There were a lot of renovations done to the school after I left so it is even nicer and newer in a sense. I was able to form some great relationships with teachers who enjoyed what they did and made learning fun. Overall, I enjoyed my time there and wish I could have experienced it for all 4 years.

It was an academically challenging school but it's gone downhill since my freshman year. The math program is wonderful and the sciences are excellent, but the foreign languages could be of a better variety.

Every time I go and pay my student's fees th...

The AP course participation rates on this site are misleading as this school does not offer AP courses. Students can participate in dual enrollment courses at a local college of they desire to boost their weighted GPA and/or receive college credit.

This school focuses a lot on college readiness. They also put a lot of emphasis on class credits and GPA compared to other schools. If I had transferred my junior year to a school like Brighton high or Prarie View, I would’ve easily been able to graduate a year earlier because of my credits but I wa...
