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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

My experience at APR was a good and enriching experience. My graduating class was very small with 30 something students and that made our community very tight knit and we still keep in touch. Our teachers also had a lot of one on one time for us

This school is pretty good in its community because it is a small school most of my high school class knew each other. This had helped in gaining connections and resources from not only the teachers but also the students too. Sometimes I do think about how the school needs some touching up but from the relationships, I had made I'm glad I went to the school.

The draw of APR is the respect and friendship taught by the community. APR's select community allows a more personal experience between teachers and students.

During open house, they paint a picture of being accommodating and supportive of students with IEPs and special needs, but that could not be further from the truth. The lack of safety, accountability, and proper supervision is alarming. The behavior in t...
This school welcome families like their kids are about to be in the best school of their lives, but it's quite the opposite. Fights happen every day, and I've witnessed at least 4 of them in my 94 days of being in the school. Teachers, well they are constantly disrespected by students in my class an...
This school has helped me improve my work and my attitude towards school. APR also has a set goal for all their students and their future. I dont know where I would be if I didn't go to APR.
APR is a great school all around. I took my son out of Catholic School because of the cost and put him here and I have no regrets. The teachers really build the children's confidence and they feel they can accomplish anything. They support each child's individual needs. My sons grade have all gone u...
