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.

My kid gets bullied and kids in her grade vape and she comes home crying everyday because the she's not "normal"and gets bullied and the teachers don't even notice that's she is being bullied. She told me that she raised her hand and know one came to her for 20 minutes and could never finished her homework. And the dress codes are unfair to girls and boys.
