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.

Full of idiotic kids with no diversity, and show a lack of respect. In a big rich white neighborhood, and kids don't take work seriously. The teachers are young and stupid, and they don't know how to educate kids properly. I hate this district so much. It does not know how to spend money on extra curricular activities, and is one of the few districts without a debate program. Screw this school.

Hi, I have gone to this school for over 2 years and this is my review. I have lived in Madison ever since I was born and loved it. As I got older, kids started getting ruder and ruder.

My daughter is in 7th grade and seems to be receiving very good instruction. The advanced math she is doing is ahead of the material I was receiving in advanced math when I was in 7th grade. Her teachers seem enthusiastic and engaged.

School has gone down hill fast after Ms. Sherrin left. Kids are mean right in the open, teachers are apathetic about it, and the environment is not inclusive.
