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.

I liked that Hills was such a small school and it felt as if I had one large family. Everyone is so kind and caring about everyone else. The only thing I would change is how "clicky" it is.

Most are great, but a few don't put in the work that they really should.

It's a little too small town for my liking. If you don't have the right last name, chances are you will be treated differently than if you did.
