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.

My school is many things, but it's not perfect. The administration seems to bully the students more than guiding and leading them. The food is mediocre but nonetheless like any other American public school. The teachers are really kind though and they really do seem to care.

My Overall experience in Memphis School of Excellence is like no other school I've attended. Teachers are very supportive and help students to learn and have a good understanding or the lessons. Since the school is small, teachers can really get to know you personally and build a bond. Classmates are also supportive and helpful to one another. Top tier education and safety for students.
