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.

Mountain Ridge Middle School has been a good experience for me. The spirit and culture the school gives is spectacular. Staff show so much spirit into the activities that involve students. This school has much activities for students. Although the struggle of trying to learn is hard especially when other students are disturbing the class. The technology is poor because of broken computers and the difference between one pods tech than the others.
