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.

FACTS was a safe=place for children to learn. It was a diverse community where children were able to make life-long friendships. Because it is a small school, students are able to form close bonds with teachers.

FACTS Charter School provides a safe environment space for students to learn and to grow. I feel like this school is so creative. They replaced Columbus Day with Many Points Of View Day. FACTS Charter School taught me a new way of thinking by looking at a situation from a different perspective. FACTS not only work hard but believe that all students should have a day off with their fellow classmates so that is when Play Day came along. A day where students play interactive games at a park if it doesn't rain. If the weather doesn't cooperate then there will be indoor Play Day. Little things at FACTS makes it so special that I believe if I get to choose again I wouldn't choose others school over FACTS.
