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 good at what they do,but, they cant do it because of bad kids.its not an ideal learning environment for me to be in personally i don't feel challenged but others might.

I was a student at Detroit Public Safety Academy from 10th-12 grade and I couldn't have asked to attend a better high school. The feeling of attending a school where I feel I am around family is what I was searching for and I found it in Detroit Public Safet Academy
