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.

Murray hill academy is small school, so you are able to receive individual attention and help. Also students and teachers are very easy to talk to.

It's an easy credit school. Many people who are struggling to get their 44 credits have success here. Although many teachers have left the school because of their "corrupt system". This school has really good college readiness- making sure everyone looks into colleges, applied, etc. But this school's system is broken and it doesnt seem like there is a care for change.

A 5 because having a program such as STARS allows students to improve their grades and work on missing work also review work when not understanding . At Murray Hill Academy we have no homework allowing students to be free and work on other things .
