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 has been great. Da Vinci has many classes that typical schools do not have. It allows for every student to explore their interests, with amazing teachers to help along the way.

I entered Da Vinci as a Junior in High School and did not regret it. Da Vinci has given me so many opportunities. One is being able to take UT Austin college courses while getting the credit. Another is participating in a NASA competition which my team ended up winning first place. I love orchestra and DaVinci has a big orchestra and an awesome teacher. I would recommend this school for students that like a small cozy school environment.

I have been at this institution for 2 years now, and I can say that it is a good school with great teachers and professors. However, it is highly understaffed and lacks a sense of community between the students. I believe that the school could improve its relationship with its students by involving them and listening more to their input, since they are the ones attending this school.
