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've been at this school for all my four years and everyday I'm happy I chose to attend. The teacher really care about their students and their learning. The curriculum is challenging but not hard to comprehend with the help of these amazing teachers. One thing they could improve upon is the amount of arts we have. There is no theatre department in our building nor in JCM.

What I like about JCM Early College High School is that it prepares you for the future. You are able to graduate high school not only with your diploma but also with an associate degree. It is a small school, however everyone is so close and we get along so well.

I love JCM ECH! The school has given me nothing but opportunities these last four years. Everyone is kind and gets treated like family! I would recommend JCM ECH to any high school student that is looking to get a head start on their future!
