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.

Nothing at this school ever screams "Go here". Teachers, subjects, school lunches, everything really range from good to bad. If it wasn't for the fact that everything at the school is affordable and I'd met so many great people there, I wouldn't want to go to just an average school over our neighbors which excel in certain aspects.

Teachers range from interactive and nice to cold and distant. Some teachers never show up for class while other never miss a day because of a commitment to their students.

I think this is a fantastic school! I've had 4 of my 5 children graduate from Perry; the youngest to finish in 2013, all of whom have went on to specialize in meaningful careers!
