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.

New Mexico Connections Academy has helped me a lot by paying for my tuition and books for my college classes. The teachers and the school system work at your time and your own pace. I think their school system would be great for busy kids who attend college or want an early start in life.

New Mexico Connections Academy has given me a great advantage of college life. I could do my high school whenever I wanted and do it at my own pace and they even paid full tuition for college.
