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.

Glendale Prep creates an atmosphere so full of love for the students. Teachers will go above and beyond for students doing all they can because the want us to get as much information they can give us. The sports program is also very amazing. You feel as if you are playing not just with other students , but a family. One thing I wish would change is some of the dress code rules, specifically the female dress code rules. Some of the rules in my personal experience are very limiting to what we can and cannot do, I feel I am unable to express myself the way I want to.
