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.

Overall, the JP Knapp Early College high school is a generally good school. There is a high amount of involvement from staff as the school usually does not surpass 300 students. They urge college readiness and provide a variety of resources to assist students in future paths.

Im in my senior year and I couldn't imagine going anywhere else. They give students great opportunities to express themselves and find a career that will fit you very well. You always find somewhere to fit in. All of the teachers here want the best for you and will help you the best they can.
