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.

The class list is very small so if you are seriously invested in your academics I recommend going somewhere with more diversity in classes available.

I hated every minute of every day that I had to be in that place it was the equivalent of the h, e, double l word. All of the people that I knew there I hated it as well it was a miserable horrible experience and I wish every day I would've chosen to go to another school. please do not force your children to have to go through what I, and many others had to go through.

I love the small school vibe of Lyons. Everyone knows each other and it is really easy to get involved in a lot of different activities. The educators are helpful, informative and insightful. The location of the school itself is amazing. There are great places to hike, bike, run and swim all less than a half mile away from the school. Lyons is overall a very good school.
