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.

Alger B. Wilkins is a second chance high school. It gave me an incredible opportunity to graduate early/on time, catching up 12 credits in one semester. However their academics could have been improved, but because it's such a small school, you do at least get better more personal interactions with teachers and staff which makes everything a little better.

The teachers are nice . They help you when you need help. If you have any problems they try to help you with anything if they can . They also have clubs for certain days and have people that just care in general overall its a great school and im going to miss it.
