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 experience at the Academy was helpful. I'm grateful that I was able to learn engineering so early on, but for me, it really solidified that I didn't necessarily want to go into engineering. Even though I came out on a medical path, I feel that taking engineering helped me to develop the critical thinking skills that I would need to succeed in any career that I pursue.

From my time spent so far at the Academy I can say that I really love the opportunities we are given to expand our understanding of various subjects as well as the closeness of the school community we have. I hope to continue striving for a better me at this school and beyond.

Honestly, I've seen better teaching. The students do perform well, but mostly because the parents are driven. .It's located in North Edison which has something of a stigma in many circles. I guess it really depends on your perspective.
