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.

Being a Genesis gave me a different perspective on school and life in general. There was teachers there that I will never forget because they motivated me so much. There was teachers there that pushed students educationally when students needed to be heard not pushed. But besides that is was definitely a experience.
