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.

While it is a good school with good teachers and an effective learning program, their accommodation for mentally ill and disabled students is severely lacking.

West Sioux is a small school where every kid is a name and not a number. No kid is left behind and it is a great learning experience. Kids also have a great opportunity to play in sports and extra curricular activities.
