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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

I am a current senior and have been attending Washington Prep for all four years. I didn't have any high expectations coming in because of its well known reputation as "ghetto" but am surprised at the opportunities that have grown at this school. There are still a bunch of "bad" students and disruptions happen almost every day but if you are in the right group and prioritize relationships with teachers you can get a fulfilling high school experience at Washington Prep such as I did.

I've only been at George Washington preparatory high school for a semester now and I really like it. The English class really gets me prepared for college and so does the schedule.
