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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

I stated my school career in Holy Family school and entered Sauk Centre Public in the 7th grade. The school was very welcoming and I felt very at home. I flourished once I entered the Public School. There were so many more options for things to be involved in and I already had many friends that attended.

I liked the staff and teachers. I wish our school would spend our money wisely. For example instead of a new football field in which of team does very poorly they could put that money towards the bathrooms. The bathrooms in the junior high are outdated some have doors that won't latch or even no door at all and only one sink works.

I am usually accepted and I can often talk to teachers about any problems I am facing, either at home or at school. My friends are very accepting and I can always count on them to help me through anything and they are just a lot of fun.
My twin grandsons attend the elementary; The teachers are professional, caring, supportive of the childrens' learning styles. I have great respect for these teachers; the school is awesome, thank you!!
