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.

My experience at arts academy in the woods would be described as interesting. There would always be something to participate in when it's a school assembly and preforming in front of your fellow students or other important events such as evening of the arts or if you were a senior there was senior project. My best experiences were with my friends and sharing laughs in the funniest situations. And my worst experiences were when one of my friends or classmates were not having a great day and trying to do my best to comfort them during the day. I wanna see that the administration see these kids who are getting bullied by classmates just being themselves and actually do something about it and not just ignore it.

What I like about Arts Academy in the Woods is that the school is lgbtq+ friendly. Everyone in the school has respect for others and try to uplift people that are down. There are two things I would want to change is the teacher being unorganized. I just wish that they would be more organized. I can't say that all teachers are unorganized, some are very organized. The other thing is food I'm tired of eating the same thing two days in a row. All I'm saying is that have different foods.

3 stars, but a strong 3 stars, 3.5 if I could rate it that. Very friendly and open school, but most of the problems lie within the student body or staff rather than the teachers.

Being a student here can be difficult at times but being independent is a good trait to have at this school. Fixing my own problems and not relying on the administration is a given. Overall, don't expect it to be easy. There will be times where you have to wait weeks to have a one sentence email fro...

My daughter is very happy there, she is a Freshman. The Principle is involved in everything. I have met all her teachers they are interested in helping and they teach the students. We came from Warren Consolidated District and were VERY unhappy with Middle School. Middle School has to many students...
