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 feel there's so many things our school could improve in. Teachers are nice and I personally really liked my counselor, however when it comes to the school atmosphere it's completely different. The new STEAM building was nice but it's the only nice thing our school has to offer. Every other building is outdated. The sports fields are terrible and so behind. Every school has turf fields and a stadium while our school doesn't improve anything.

I transferred to Mayfair my Junior year of High-School, and it was one of the best things for me. The school isn't huge, so you have an idea who everyone is, but it's not to small where it becomes like a small town. The teachers are great, and the curriculum is challenging. There are lots of events and activities that keep students engaged and having fun. The principle, Mr. Diaz, is awesome. He truly loves and supports the students and is very welcoming of new ideas.

It is my personal experience as a Mayfair Student parent to give them a score of 9/10 for the following reasons:reason 1 : Teachers really care for students to strive, but it is our work to keep our children motivatedreason 2: Mandarin Language is a big win win if you want your child to learn and ex...

It is a nasty and dirty school that lacks in the being supportive of adv. learning experiences and would rather focus on sports or athletic activities.
