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 teachers at my school care for their students. It's not just giving oit ABCD tests. They do activities that engage the audience listening. They use real world examples of things with current news. The teachers want their students to succeed!

Theres a bunch of wannabe gangster kids that get no repercussions for fighting or vaping. They basically give them a 2 week suspension and that’s it. Their parents dont care so that’s basically a free vacation.
