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.

Pushes LGBTQ on the kids too much. Which can make kids feel uncomfortable if they are NOT gay. Teachers are called by first name and too friendly/touchy with the children. Children are not taught what is required to enter HS, although most of the teaching is based on current day news and the schools be or teachers views.
