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.

I've been at the Pinnacle ever since kindergarten and I can confidently say that it has only improved ever since. There are more options for high-achieving students and the staff is very accommodating. The community surrounding The Pinnacle Charter High School is extremely diverse and everybody is kind, supportive, and driven.
