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 and Martin Luther King has been good. Im a honor roll student and have all honor classes. I'm thankful to have teachers that understand and are willing to help downside is sometimes the class can get really loud in this hard to understand the teacher. Part is I would change. having more programs partnerships, take trips in to different colleges to better prepare you for them.

I graduated MLK when it wasn't really popular. I had a great array of activities and several opportunities afforded to me because of the effort of the teachers and staff. I was active in everything from year book to Future Nurses. They were some of the best years of my life.
