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.

While there is some violence and the occasional fight, generally nothing too serious. But as a student who has moved a lot this school is pretty is one of my worst schools I've been to so far. Also, the bathrooms are super gross, and not well maintained.

Comment in the Independent newspaper:A parent with children in the program (Dual immersion) told the board that the family chose to send the children to Junction because of the DI program. "It is an outstanding, evolving program. It is why we won't consider moving out of the area."
