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.

My experience at Amy was very pleasing, the teachers strive to actually teach you and give you enough freedom to prepare you for high school. The school includes amazing trips for students and the school is in great condition. I 100% recommend this school to anyone who wants a bit more freedom in their school life or if they want a bit more of a challenge in a school.
