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.

It was pretty good. I don't have many complaints. Some of the administrators were crazy but other than that it was pretty good.

Florence-Carlton HS has an excellent staff that do care about their students. However, the administration of the school is horrific and cares very little about the opinion of the students. Students in general are relatively accepting if wary of outsiders who are watched attentively before being unspokenly placed into a group within in the student body.
