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.

While attending Grizzly, I not only learned to be a great scholar and a leader in the classroom, but I learned to be a man out in general. Grizzly Charter School was a great experience, I enjoyed that there is always a helping hand no matter the situation. The reason I obtained a 4.0 was due to the help of the teachers and staff , they showed me I can accomplish school goals and future education.

The school staff and military staff at Grizzly can make a change in a young teens life that doesn't know what to do with their life and make them think abut their life more seriously. I would definitely go back to Grizzly and try to do even much better and instead of graduating with a 3.0 GPA I would set my goal to graduate with a 4.0 GPA.

There are amazing after-school programs but its all held on a certain day of a weekday the student can choose what ever club they want. The after-school programs at grizzly also make sure to make a change in the students life too, that's what so great about it.

Thank you Grizzly Academy and staff, for giving my son John the ability to believe in and have pride in himself. You've shown my son more than any single mother was able to do alone. Kudos to you. A very pleased mom! Class 33
