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.

Once I got into Murray hill, it did not take long to feel connected and comfortable in the community and family-like environment. there are so many resources and opportunities in MHA since it is in the heart of the city. This school definitely has your back emotionally and academically.

Going to MHA at first was a bit nerve racking, but the welcoming staff and student support makes the place feel like you belong. MHA shows improvement throughout every year, and shows student growth and connection. Graduating from MHA, I look back on the friends I've made, and the wonderful teachers who have been extremely supportive.

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 .
