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.

it was amazing, i really liked the staff and how nice they treated me. I also really like how they listen to improvement request and really try to update the school and make it better by asking students questions or giving out surveys. They really do try to make your year better and fro the next year as well. The principle is strict but also nice and I really do think he actually cares for us students.

I really liked being in that high school because it taught many different important subjects that students should know about regarding social justice topics. I enjoyed the clubs and bonding with the teachers.

the charter high school of law and social justice is a small school that isn't very diverse. Majority of the teachers and administration are very involved in the students life, which in my opinion is a great thing. Each student have a teacher that they are very close with. the students are all like family and very close with one another. However the school needs a little bit more work challenging the student academically. They also do not offer many different clubs and activities and the school culture is very poor.
