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.

McGalliard is a wonderful school to send your children. It is a small neighborhood school with family values. Or teachers, staff, students and parents all feel welcomed and safe here. The teachers, principal and school counselor go above and beyond to make a difference in every student's education.
