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.

The worst school, staff and student bully kids that are in the LBGTQ community. No safety at all. Kids get jump everyday from kids that are not in the school. Easy access for other kids to get in from different school. No learning skill or even sport. Nothing not a great school for a student that want to be someone in life.

I like the Boys Varsity Basketball team and they are very welcoming. The Phys Ed teacher is very active during gym class. The other teachers take in consideration on what goes on outside of school so they make sure that they don't overwhelm you with work.

As a paretn of a 9th grade student entering 10 grade, I feel Wings Academy does not have a handle on College readiness. I feel preparation should have begun in 9th grade.
