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 a foster child, it is known how difficult it is to stay at a single school as we are prone to move often. Complications and at home living can be quite terrible for most of us. While I resides in this school it made me feel like I had a second home. The school offers many programs for students to spend time within the school grounds. The classes were flexible and as someone who missed out on almost 2 years of highschool, I was happy to announced that I graduated a few weeks early. This school was not just a home but the foundation of my adult life and I wouldn't have traded this school for any other. What lucky opportunity I had to be a student at this installation.

One of the most amazing schools that I have ever attended. The hours were small, so I could do most of my work at home, letting me learn and progress faster. Also, the staff tried their best to make the school like a family, and to be approachable and friendly.

EGCS has suited my needs perfectly, but isn't quite as typical as my first choice would be. Due to my particular circumstances, a charter school is great. However, I've not assigned a 5/5 review because ideally, I would prefer a more traditional environment.

I switched my son from the traditional high school setting to try out this EG Charter since my son has ADD and often struggled with focusing due to the large classroom sizes. After enrollment we attended the orientation and the counselor made it very clear that the teachers would often be in contact...

We have been pleasantly surprised and pleased with the school. The administration and teachers are committed to student success and the small size makes the attention very individualized. They know them by name and really look out for the students. They go above and beyond to help their students fro...

We're new to this school with a 9th grader, but it seems to be a good fit for our son, who has health issues that made regular public school difficult. Their flexible schedule and small class sizes allow for more independent study and one-on-one attention.
