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.

Something I really liked about Central Lyon was that most of my teachers made themselves readily available for questions. Something that I really found frustrating was the lack of punishment for cheating. It felt very inconsistent, only certain students seemed to be truly punished for it.

I like how safe Central Lyon makes you feel with the locked doors that you must be buzzed into because that way you know that bad people will have a much harder time breaking into my school. The facilities at Central Lyon are very nice and it also is great to have access to computers and technology like this school provides. You can tell that the teachers really care about their students here by the amount of time they put in to see someone succeed or how they go out of their way to give help to a student family that needs it.
