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 been enrolled in Colfax high school all four years of my high school career. And to be honest it is the best time I've spent inside of a public building of this hierarchy. The only thing I would like to see change in this amazing building would have to be the student involvement between eachother and some of of the MANY clubs Colfax has to offer. Other than that, no bad things to say about Colfax.
