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.

Personally, I had a wonderful time at Roton Middle school. In my district, this school is a perfect medium located between the affluent side of Norwalk and the more working-class side. There is plenty of diversity in race, religion, and learning strengths and styles. The teachers there are overall good, but as with any school, there are some bad apples. All in all, Roton is a happy medium between extremes. There is a great family there and the academics are good.
