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 best part of STEM academy is how much the teachers care if you succeed. The worst part is that the work may seem overwhelming at times. I would like to more sports in STEM.

Great school, I wish it was more options for the activities available. Also, I wish that they offered more classes because many students going to college took unique courses that helps increase their chances.

During my time at this school, I got to meet some of the best people in my life, from the teachers/administrators to the students. Each one of them never failed to push me to my fullest potential and because of that I appreciate them so much . I had a pretty decent experience here and although there can be some slight changes made to the school, the teachers did their best to help their students and wanted what was best for them.
