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.

Frank L Madla is a small school but is welcoming to everyone and the education provided can give amazing opportunities. The teachers are kind and each student receives the help they need with every subject along with classes to help them catch up on their work so no student falls behind. I've never met a staff that truly cares for each student in order for them to do their best in both their high school and college classes in order to move on to better things. This school is one of the most caring and educational schools I've ever been too

This school has given me a great learning experience. The teachers have taught me how to exceed in whatever was thrown at me. Along with the great teaching, I was given the opportunity to earn my associates which is such a huge help in my future. I want to earn my doctorate so having less to pay is a huge help. Anyone interested in getting a boost in their education should think about attending Frank L. Madla ECHS.

My experience at Frank L. Madla Early College High School, was very amazing because of I was able to get the possibility of getting my Associates when I graduated high school. The only downside is that that you do not get the normal high school experience but you are getting so much more in return by going to the school.
