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 Rainier are amazing. They genuinely care about the students and want to help set them up for their futures. The school is very small, but there are amazing resources for how small it is.

I have been at Rainier for 4 years now, I love every single staff member. As soon as I moved to Rainier and enrolled into the school, I felt welcomed.

This is a great small town country school, the staff is amazing but when it comes to work students tend to slack off. As a student who used to go there I would say this is a okay school.
