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 loved Holly Shelter. I attended 4 years ago, and I had a very positive experience. It has changed a lot since then, though. Lately I have heard more negative things about the school than positive. There are still some exceptional teachers and staff, but I have not been back in a very long time.

this school is absolutely horrible. In no way did it prepare me for high school. The principle did not belong anywhere near children and I did not learn anything throughout the two years I went there.
