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.

My favorite thing about Curlew School is that it is rather small, so there's hardly any separation. Cliques don't exist because half the jocks are in ASB/NHS and the Thespians are all on the sports teams. Many of the students do three sports a year, and everyone makes the team. For the most part, everyone gets along. There's a very peaceful atmosphere to Curlew School.

My experience was not the best , the outdated teaching methods and lack of professionalism by staff made my years at Curlew long and drawn out. I had teachers few and far between who did see my struggle and who did help me and I had others who watched me fail or get bullied and do nothing.
