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.

Small, extremely rural school in Maine. Math classes are horrendous, the sciences used to be incredible but the teacher retired my senior year so I'm sure they're as bad as the math classes now. Arts and music are lacking due to the small size and little resources of the school. Great baseball and softball teams.

I almost feel like I was not challenged enough though. There are no AP classes and we were stuck with only one choice for foreign language.
