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.

Explorations Academy is a school with a broad amount of opportunities. There is a multitude of chances for volunteer work, collaboration with build on and the YMCA program. I would personally want to see more clubs like debate, since I've always been interested in it but haven't professionally debated. I would also love to see a book club or of any of the sorts because I love to read but even so the club would inspire me to read further and push past my stamina.

The teachers are supportive and really listen to the students. The student government represents the school well and the resources are very helpful

This school makes trips to go visit colleges which help student to think about college during the school years. But the school actually doesn't do much to improve the graduation rate.
