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.

it's not bad, my friends and I love to play games in ELA, it's not bad though, but teachers keep yelling at me even when I'm fixing my mistake like leave me alone, I know what to do and in the end she like oh. the treat everyone like that. the lunch ladies are stealing money from kids and I saw it. everyone complains.
