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.

Charter school for Applied technologies was the school my mother wanted me to go to. When i first heard i was transferring in the middle of my 5th grade year I was not so fond of the idea, only after going and experiencing it for the next 6 years did I enjoy it. I love the teachers and the opportunities that come with the school, everybody is given a chance to prove their skills and I met a lot of my closest friends going there. Although there could be better care of what is budgeted, the school does its best to make sure kids have fun as well as learn. I would not change a thing about my story with this school.

Charter school for applied technologies or csat for short is a good school. There are times we're the school has had some issues/problems but other than that it's been really good.

What I like about CSAT is the music program. What could be better is more clubs/sports (like a football team and drill team) and more equipment for sports.

The HS is the equivalent of an inner city public school in Buffalo - only worse. It is so bad, that the teacher turn over rate is horrible. Even when it comes to school social workers. The MS and Elementary school aren't any better. The bullying is out of control and nothing is done for it. You will...

CSAT used to be a great school—our children attended for many years. But poor academics, questionable ethics and hot-headed administration caused us to pull our children out of CSAT. We quickly realized the sub-par education our children received at CSAT within the first few weeks at a public school...

I love this school! The people here are so nice and welcoming. I have three children in this school and 1 stuck in public school. One in the new middle school and one in the high school.
