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've had a great experience with Cochrane, it has been my second school since I've arrived in America and it was the school that got me out my comfort zone, which I had a hard time doing at my previous school but me getting out my comfort zone made my experience so much better. The teachers and the staff are extremely welcoming and make sure you feel comfortable as a new student and a student that has been there for a little while. Cochrane is a great school to be at because it is small, easy to move around and smooth.

I used to despise school and I went to some really great schools, but I learned to value the schools I went to and ended up going to. Almost everyday there was a kid, or various students who started a di...

The school has some great faculty but the students are ruthless, undisciplined and already off to a bad future. I have never had any discipline problems from my daughter until she started going to this school. Students are picking at her, telling her who she can be friends with and what to say to pe...

If you can help it, DO NOT have your child enrolled in this school. As a new resident to the Charlotte area, the office staff assured me my son would continue hisEngineering studies but he was NOT assigned to any such thing. I was informed to contact CMS but wasn't given any details regarding how to...
