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.

It's been quite a while since I've been in the school but while i was there the teachers were straight forward. If you needed the help it would be given to you. The grading was due to them some valued homework more than classwork it all depended on the teacher. The knowledge mostly matters on the student they really have to be engaged to what they are doing and take up the lessons being taught, as well as the teacher how they teach.
