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.

Lake Placid Middle School isn't the best school, but it isn't the worst, either. While there are a lot of disciplinary issues, I got a decent education from teachers who mostly knew what they were doing. One thing I'd like to see change is the discipline area since it doesn't seem to be working.
