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.

There are many ways to be involved, but there are a set amount of clubs (3-4) and sports (7).

Most of the teachers are willing to help a struggling student outside of class, but most expect a student to learn in class because they have other priorities outside of class.
