Niche grades and rankings are calculated using dozens of public data sets and millions of reviews. Niche data scientists and user researchers rigorously analyze data and user opinions to assess the key aspects of K-12 Schools, Colleges, and Places to Live.

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.

The new Philadelphia Military Academy is one of the most unique educational experiences in Philadelphia. Going to the Academy teaches a Cadet duty , accountability and to respect the hard work the ones around them are completing.

It's your typical Philadelphia high school. Not the best but also not the worst out there. Overall the teachers are okay but aren't the greatest they teach what has to be taught and that's pretty much it. The food isn't the worst but it's Philly so it's pretty much the same school lunch every where.

I gave this school a 4/5 because although the student body isn't the best, this school provided a lot of opportunities and the staff is amazing!

I have seen teachers fail students...
