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 personally loved Common Ground. I met the best people in my life there! All I'd like to change about it is it's lack of Performing Arts.

Common ground is not a good school if you want to get into good schools like Harvard. They act like they are preparing us for college when really the school is really bad; most kids are really behind. Teachers move around a lot some of them don't even stay long enough to teach the students something. A lot of the students here are depressed or suffering from mental illness that the school doesnt help with. Many of the students here hate the school and wish to be somewhere else. There are some good teacher that make it better. The administration bad and the students and teachers don't feel safe with them.

While the teachers are wonderful, the culture of community has slowly faded away since my freshman year. Granted there wasn't a super strong sense of community, the school was once much more connected. Because community is a selling point for Common Ground, something needs to change.
Common ground is a great option for parents of special needs students who can't find the right fit in the new haven public system. Our son is graduating this year and after two other new haven schools (his 9th and 10th grades) I didn't think we would get here. Common ground seems to specialize in ca...

Not only are the classes and teaching of good quality but the extra-curricul...
