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.

Over half of the staff is new over the past two years. Some new staff only stays for a year. The principal is so concerned about keeping his job and moving up that he forgot to be a principal. Teachers are leaving due to lack of support. There is no discipline!

Those were all funneled down to the school counselor. There were even a couple of teachers who I felt bullied the students....
