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.

The Academy for Excellence in Leadership gives a basic experience to anyone who attends, the community is somewhat diversified but the administration is very lackluster. They don't encourage or inspire anyone to do anything, there are very little clubs which makes the school feel empty unless you're stuck in the crowded narrow halls trying to make your way to the next class.

My experience is this school expanded my personality. Before I was once shy but attending this school I have stepped out of my comfort zone and it feels great.
