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.

Paul Duke is one of the most amazing schools. I cannot even begin to describe how much I love it there. The range of courses is great with something for every level of rigor and every area of interest. The community is brilliant with regular events and social activities for anyone to attend. The students are all unique and everyone can feel like they belong. The best part for me though has been the teachers. Each and every teacher truly cares about the students and can make any subject enjoyable. I feel that I am not only a student in their class but I also have a friendly relationship with them. Paul Duke prepares me for the future every day and I look forward to what I will achieve there in the future.
