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 just graduated Boltz this year, and this school is awful. Bullying is a frequent problem, and the counselors do nothing about it, even if you tell them about it. Mental illness is also a big issue there, as most people that I have asked had anxiety or depression, or both (including me). The school's food is just like any other school's. It's 50/50 among the teachers, some were awesome, and others were awful. The AVID program is also horrific, the tutors they hired seemed to only be there in order to make their resumes look good.
