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 diversity there is accepted and never questioned or challenged. Many special education students and students with a disability are enrolled at Kaufman High School and are treated with the same respect as the rest of the student body. The school offers many continued education programs in order to help its' students succeed outside of high school, and encourages students to take the path most beneficial to them.
