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.

The atmosphere at Glacier is awesome. The teachers are very welcoming and if you need the help, they will help you. They go out of their way to make sure you're understanding the lesson. They also have a wide variety of extracurricular activities and clubs.

One thing I really like about Glacier is the positive attitude almost everyone there has toward the building and fellow student. One thing I would like to see changed is the attendance policy.

It's a super great school. Everyone is super involving and academics are definitely top of the notch. Extra-curricular events are super fun and I recommend going to as many as you can. They do a great job in preparing you for your future- whatever it may be.

We absolutely love this school! They have a wonderful outdoor classes program that allows the kids to learn archery, basic life skills, go skiing, hiking, rafting and fishing and more! I couldn't recommend this school more. The teachers are kind and we have felt very welcomed here!
