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.

Midland Trail has been a great school for me. We have a small environment so we don't have a lot of things that the bigger schools have. I take college classes so that's gotten me ready for the real thing. Other than that, we don't have a lot of different electives like other schools have.

It's a small school, 400 kids or less in 9-12, obviously that gives us less opportunities and resources when compared to bigger schools such as Oak Hill. That being said, no where else are you given such a nurturing community and environment. Our school is just big enough to have a few APs and many Dual Credits, but just small enough so that everyone knows everyone. No community adores their students like Patriots do.
