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.

I love how M.S. Palmer has a family environment. They make sure we are college ready. Also they give us the material we need.

Handling students' health at my school. We are often sent to the school nurse who gives us medicine or makes us sit down. I sometimes don't feel very safe because our school doors do not lock so the janitors put chains on them.
