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 would not choose Colfax high school if I could do it all over again because it is very small. Colfax high school concentrates on sports. Students who are in sports are treated better than those who are not. If you are not in a sport, you are not popular and it is hard to make friends. If I could do it all over again I would choose a bigger school that had more opportunities for other organizations than sports.
