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.

Daphne East was once considered one of the best in Baldwin County, but now they are mediocre at best. The administration and teachers only focus on preparing robots who score high on state testing. There is little to no parent/faculty engagement, and rarely does the school allow after school events. Clubs and extracurricular activities to engage with children do not exist.
