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.

The teachers are very willing to help and are very understanding. Most of the students are great kids but there are a few not so good ones to hang around.

I just recently graduated from Colome. I came here Second semester of my freshman year. There were 19 kids in my class. I loved the smaller class size because it meant more one on one time with teachers. Here the teachers actually cared about how you were doing and if you understood what was going on in class. They may not completely prepare us for college but the knowledge we do get we actually retain. The down side of Colome is how old the building is, its over 100 years old. There is no elevator and 4 flights of stairs with no rubber grips for your shoes. The school is also 3 different buildings. Another thing is the doors are dangerous, very often kids almost or do get hit by them.
