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 attended 6th grade at awtrey. When I was a student the school was a little on the bad side. I remember there were a lot of fights and bad behavior amongst many students. I have a family member that attends he school now, however, and I can say from personal experience that the school has improved significantly. My answers are based on my experience as a student but my experience now as an adult who attended in the past is a good one. Teachers and staff are kind, friendly, and polite.
