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.

Love this school! The staff are kind and caring. My child really didn't like school until they came to Avanti.

All the teachers are amazing. Always willing to help with any assignments that are difficult or have questions and will help come up with a completely new learning plan if you need something different. They are all very open and friendly, most even are called by their first names.

There aren't currently many clubs but the ones we do have are fun and interesting. Mosaic Club talks about social justice issues and the adventure club plans fun hikes and trips around the area. Plus adventure days throughout the year are always exciting!
