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.

I personally enjoyed my time at avalon schools, its a pretty fun school, kinda average academics with not many choices, and little diversity, the food is below average but our culture and unity is unmatched. Even student teacher relationships have a strong bond. Our academics can use work but our school breeds potential.

The campus is very safe and beautiful with the views of the hill side. It has more of a college campus feel.

Avalon, Catalina - my child was new and was terribly bullied by the local kids here, she is the sweetest nicest kid ever and these kids were awful, their parents awful, and the school did little to change things - do not send you kid here, spare them great cruelty
