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 had a great experience at my school, the teachers were great. They really got to know us as students and we really felt like a family. The energy and attitude was always up and the teachers were never afraid to talk to us about anything.

I enjoyed the majority of my high school career at MMCRU. I feel as if MMCRU has done a great job preparing me for the future. They offer an AP class, which most schools our size don't. I learned a lot from it, like time management and how to properly study from a textbook. Everyone was always so optimistic. Our students also have a lot of school spirit, no matter the record of the team, and it's always so much fun. One thing I would change about our school is the building itself, but they are already in the process of making this change, with a voting election in November.

i have been attending this school since third grade. i have always felt safe in this school and i know that i can go and talk to anyone when something is wrong. i love this school because its in a small town. i really like this because then we can get to know every student a little better than we would if we were a bigger school.
