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've been at academy now for 5 years now. It's racism here at the school but on the bright side, we have nice teachers, a great education system, and a nice sport team for the most part.

Overall this school was okay but it didn't set me up for college success. I would like harder academics or competition in order to get the kids ready for success in college.

The school is steadily declining. Choose another district that has better ratings.

Academy Schoos are in need of new leadership. Academics are on the decline and the athletic department is unacceptable. Ask around before you move your children to this school.

The teachers and staff are phenomenal! This is a close-knit school that very much care about personal integrity and academic success. We couldn't be more pleased!!
