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 is a small school, so the teachers are able to have more one-on-one interaction with everyone. All of the staff members are amazing at what they do, and they try not to put any pressure on students while also making them the best they could be. I love coming to this school and I believe others do as well.

Rachel Carson High School might be a small school but tends to the needs of individual students that it is just as good as a specialized high school.

This school is amazing, It has so many programs that my kid participates in, he won many contest because the teachers encouraged him, love this school, recommend it for any child who dreams for a bright future.
