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.

Collegium as a whole is a great school with not much that needs to be changed or done. I think they need to add more STEM/STEAM classes or activities in general. I think also trying to figure out a way for kids be able to go to TCHS instead of having to go back to their home school and then go.

It is a genuinely good small school. It does face the expected issue that come with its size though; difficulty in hiring and lack of sports or community. The teachers range from way over qualified 50 year olds who are borderline experts in the field to 25 year olds who have trouble managing their class. There is a heavy focus on college readiness but it is not always absorbed by the students.

Good from k-3. When both my kids entered 4th grade, it completely changed. Teachers were overwhelmed with behavioral issues in the classroom and administration would not deal with it. Instead they suggested my kid get counseling to learn how strategies in how to not let behavioral issues impact his...

Collegium is not the same school it was 10 or 12 years ago. There are some individual teachers who are absolutely fantastic and completely invested in their students. Others, not so much. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that school administration supports those who care over those who don't. Neithe...
