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.

my cousin is actively being bullied by students here and one specifically on a bus and a bus driver watches as kids approach him and punch him repeatedly in his ribs! THE BUS DRIVER SHOULD BE IN JAIL!
