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.

I think that Bruce Highschool is good for what it is. They have nice enough teachers as well as pretty good college preparation and they have a good overall academic atmosphere. The admin are annoying but other than that I enjoy it

Bruce is a really good school overall. The teachers are pretty good teachers who interact with you and take time to get to know you as a student. We aren't the best at sports though.
