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 experience at IDEA Walzem has been very good the teachers at the school have helped me out to be successful on my road to and through college. The teachers are very helpful when I need help and the academics at the school are amazing especially with being able to get college credit with taking AP classes.

Educational wise, my child is doing great. I think the school is doing good in the basic classes. But in my opinion they should put more electives, other classes like music, art, drama, lab or stuff like that for the students to be more rounded instead of been so strict on test/education if you know...

My son was treated horribly violated my son's 504. Because my child was white he was treated horribly the administration bullied my child called him a horrible kid to his face and teachers refused to work with him when he needed help. Gave work without help or again following his 504.

The idea school system is the worst. -1 million rating. They are so pre conditioned to think violence is normal that they let it happen. What's worse is they delete negative reviews to make themselves look better. Its disgusting.
