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.

I love my experience at Mary Passage Middle School, it prepared me for my high school years very well. I wish the sports aspect was more extensive. I love the orchestra program, it was the best experience. I wish they stressed us to take school for seriously.
