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.

Gary School isn't like other schools. Due to the smaller size, the connections you can make with staff and students are like no other. My teachers for one are always there to help and constantly support me. They always have new opportunities for me and will never hesitate to tell me about them. I would have never been able to accomplish what I have at other schools as I have at Gary.
