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 believe that my school is awsome. I have so many friends that i grew up going to school with me and are graduating with me in May. My school experience has overall been sucessful and the school is small so not much worries about violence like in other schools they may have to. The school has clubs that people join so they don't just go home and do nothing after school. Such groups are SADD and FCCLA. If i wasn't graduating this year i would love to go another school year here at North Star Public School.

They help a lot and as much as they can with students with is good to see. If I need help or have a question I don't feel dumb asking them for help or even advice.

I think teachers are there to help as much as they can. If not, then they picked the worst job to do because kids need guidance and motivation. Dress code is something like no short dresses and really hasn't been a problem because people know the rules. Pretty standard and usual policies I just wish teachers would pay more attention to bullying.
