Niche grades and rankings are calculated using dozens of public data sets and millions of reviews. Niche data scientists and user researchers rigorously analyze data and user opinions to assess the key aspects of K-12 Schools, Colleges, and Places to Live. Every month, millions of students and families use the Niche grades and report cards to find the right school or neighborhood.
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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

Since Galway is such a small town, I went to kindergarten with most of the kids that were in my graduating class. Being with the same small group of people for your whole school experience definitely has its plusses and minuses. On the one hand, knowing everyone in your grade and the grades around you makes school feel almost like a family. However, it certainly lacks the diversity of cultures and experiences that a larger school could provide.

For the most part, Galway is a tight-knit environment allowing students to make friendships that last a lifetime. But, Galway is very unorganized with its planning and administration can be very deaf toward teacher's concerns.

Galway is a great school!! I have since graduated and I realize what a good place it is. Unlike the other reviews say, new students are not isolated. We have plenty of students who are always willing to help make other people comfortable, and we are not an all white, Christian school. The majority i...
