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.

Administrators are not well qualified and overbearing. I would think that based upon their "education" they would be able to solve simple problems but time and time again they cannot. I feel as though we are on a broken time machine and cannot get off. I wonder if they will even read this and if so if it will matter. Disregarding facts is something they do well and will continue to forever.
