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.

There is a lot of thing I like about Parker High School. The school is not very big so you meet a lot of new people and become friends with a lot of new kids. It's an awesome experience. What I would like the see change is how we're not known by many colleges. Therefore there isn't many chances for college. If we were a bigger school it would be easier but we're not.
