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.

Small hometown school. Had some really great teachers, but also some others that were budget hires. Has to be hard to recruit talented teachers to a small rural district. But, I'm sure this is the case with many small public schools nowadays. Loved my time in school, lifelong friends were made.
