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.

when i went to fitz, i was in the gifted program. the program itself was good, and it helped me take high school courses ahead, bt other then that, it was bad. there are fights almost everyday, and the sro does not do anything to separate/prevent them, the staff can sometimes be rude and act like all of the kids there are juvenile delinquents, and the lunches are often disgusting, ranging from bad fruit to brown lettuce. all in all, if the school was only the gifted prorgam, it would be a great school, but everything else just makes it unappealing.
