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.

Everest is a pretty good school overall, since coming here my freshman year I have built a very personal connection with the teacher and in doing so it has helped me by being able to trust them. The Everest community is very friendly and caring. Everest as prepared and helped me get ready for college pretty well by having mentors that help us and by having college readiness classes mandatory for all students during there junior year
