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.

The best part of my experience is that they get me ready for college and make sure I stay on task. The worst part is that some students do too much by not being in class and being in the hallways all the time.

Miller grove has taught me things in every aspect that I couldn't learn anywhere else. I've encountered the best staff and peers along with the worst but every encounter has helped me grow in each way. From an outgoing little girl to a successful young lady on the rise. I thank Miller Grove for every step of the way.

Miller grove is a pretty good school. The food can be pretty bad and the teachers can be mean people at times and not listen and understand students. I would like teachers to be more seeing and hearing of students and harsh consequences FOR PEOPLE THAT DESERVE THEM. Not just anyone thats done a minor action.

The educators and administration are well aware that they are in an underserved community and instead of choosin...
