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 have been with Harmony School of Excellence for 8 years and I'm about to graduate in the upcoming year of 2025. I have seen Harmony change for the worse and the better. The friends and teachers I've met at Harmony have become family to me. Harmony prioritizes college readiness and your children's education. The only thing Harmony lacks is student spirit.

I have been at Harmony School of Excellence - Dallas for 3 years and love it very much. I've made 3 extremely close friends here who i met in my first year. Somethings i would like to change are the windows and ceiling panels, anytime it rains there is leakage that causes water damage to almost everything so i believe better cieling panels and forification around the edges of the windows will stop this problem from continuing. Another thing that could be fixed is that there is only one janitor who does everything herself. I dont think any one person could clean a whole school and not be tired so hiring another janitor seems like a good idea to get moe done and improve the cleanliness of our school.
