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.

Very discriminative teachers. Do not respond to hand raising there's no point for that to even be a rule. They say there going to fail you but never try to help you they overuse their power. If you make one mistake or go down the wrong path one time they look at you as a follower or non-behaved. I recommend not going or sending your kids to school.
