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.

Going to Newell High School is fun and it's nice that it's a small school because you won't be overwhelmed with finding classes and doing your homework. Teachers are always there to help you with issues or homework. It's easy to be on a sports team because of how many kids are in the school.
