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.

Northwest Rankin Middle School is amazing. Mr. Taylor cares so much about the students that attend this school. He sees the good in everyone and is greatly loves the kids who have disabilities. That really means a lot to me and to others.
