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.

GreatSchools.org -- Would you take the time to address the poignant review from April 8, 2021? Seems like a legitimate post. Additionally, when do reviews start falling off the back end of the ratings score? Ratings and reviews from 2010 have their place...in the Archives.
