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 this school has been great. I've been at O'bannon since kindergarten and now I'm about to graduate in a few more months. It's a great school to go to but sometimes the work and just going there is a little boring. I wish the school could be more fun. We need different activities to do and maybe that will help most kids and they would love to come to school.
