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.

As long as you're in the Pre-AP program, Barton is great. There are some really great teachers in Pre-AP Math, Science, and English. Most of the problems in the regular classes are not the teachers' fault. They're dealing with kids who don't care, kids who will soon be the 4th or 5th generation on welfare, kids who will soon be in prison. It all goes back to parents. The kids whose parents value education excel.

Barton Junior High reminds me of typical schools. If you a problem, they'll go by the book and if your situation doesn't match the book, then you have to fight. They don't go the extra mile, but they won't allow their students to be blatantly neglected.
