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.

I have enjoyed my experience at Berkmar. The best part has been the teachers. They all take pride in their job and aim to help and care for their students in all possible ways. The worst part has been the students. So many are selfish and can ruin a person's experience in a heartbeat. I want an improvement in the administration. They need to help the students and staff better in the future.
