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 school is not bad, is the kids the make the school look bad. Teachers do their part by teaching the students. Some students just don't listen and be disrespectful to the adults because they are bored or they think they cool by doing it. In my opinion is the parents fault for not educating their kids and letting them do what they want. Gholson cloud be better if the students can learn how to respect the adults in the school. The teachers don't get paid enough to babysit
