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 son always loved going to school but when he started going to this school that changed. He came home one day and said, "mom, the teachers just don't care about the students at this school". He has also explained very disturbing incidences such as girls getting groped in packed hallways, bullying, and tons of vaping and drug use.
