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.

Magellan is a very good school. It has amazing resources, and most of the teachers are extremely nice and understanding. There is low diversity, but there is a high amount of parent involvement. The clubs are pretty good (I'm not in one though), and after-school activities are world qualifiers. They have an amazing college readiness program, and the facilities inside are clean

It was awful because of teachers, homework, social problems, only white and no diversity, no cafeteria, no specials, and tiny classes. High school has definitely been way better.

It is very challenging but the teachers are there after hours to help the students. They work with them in the classroom and keep the parents in the loop.

I had a 3rd grader at Magellan during the pandemic. Was there a lot of homework? yes. Did my daughter *need* a lot of homework? Absolutely. Look, my partner and I both work and we did have to spend time with her during the week to complete her homework. It was not easy. But! Her work paid off. She w...
