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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

The staff is usually very consistant with the rules and if someone breaks one of the rules, proper punishment will be enforced. The school has a zero tolerance for bullying, and we enforce a strict dress code.

The teachers give the assignments and expect the student to do...

Which, my school is very significant to me, as are all individuals involved. L-M may not b...
