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.

The high school is new to Ridgeline Academy. It is unorganized in many ways because it is new. For being a charter school, there are many sports options. The coaches are willing to work with the kids who may not be able to make a team in a public school. The teachers and the principal know each student's name and what they are involved in. They ask many questions and it feels like a family atmosphere.

Bullying is a part of the fabric and foundation of this school. Not only can you expect student bullying to be taken lightly but you can expect that the teachers will condone it at best and participate in it at worst. The administration does nothing to discourage this and will back their staff to th...
