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 liked this school a lot. My ratings may have been mostly average, but that's what made my overall experience very good. Nothing at this school is terrible, and that means a lot.

Even though Arcadia is average on a few rating areas, it is a well rounded school to attend. You get education and experience from what you put into it. If work hard in the end it shows what you were taught.

The school all together is well put together ever since we have received a new principal. Ever since he came along, we have gotten our acts together and are working harder on doing our best. I am a senior so this year is very stressful to me, but I have good guidance counselors and great principals...
