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.

Unchecked crime immediately outside of the school grounds. Surrounded by a neighborhood of crime and poverty, drugs and violence. There’s not a day that the police aren’t responding right on the other side of the fence from the school.
