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.

Many OV parents attended CDO. BASIS, Ironwood, Mt View, & other schools weren't built yet. Naturally, such CDO alums have fond memories of CDO. However, it appears many also have a good case of confirmation bias. That is, they see all the pluses of CDO, but ignore the (growing) flaws. This isn't the...

CDO has outstanding academics, vibrant arts programs and they have a long history of excellence in their sports programs. CDO consistently wins awards in the Academic Decathlon and they currently have three possible National Merit Scholars. I don't have experience in the school's IB program but I kn...
