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.

There isn't much of an extra support system. Scholarships aren't offered to students unless they required a sport.

Some of the guidance counselors are rude and useless unless you want to have a bad day, you would go there. IT seemed almost a racist system.
