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.

Shame on you karns middle school for not following through with the dress code equally to all GENDERS!!! If it is not ok for boys to wear pajama pants then it eaually is not ok for all the girls to run around in booty shorts! ALL DRESS CODE SHOULD BE EQUAL! If you are going to say something to a boy...
