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.

In my experience, I didn't suffer much from homophobia. I am white, so I can't comment on racism (or trans issues either) but I can say most teachers are accepting of students and just want to see them happy and successful.

Being a small school system, Purdy cannot offer the higher paying teaching positions as larger systems can but, that doesn't stop the entire teaching faculty from giving above and beyond. I have personally experienced many teachers going that extra mile with no regard for their time or pay. Each one is to be commended.
