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.

Seward is a small school where students are able to build lasting relationships with teachers and staff. However, opportunities are limited and most advanced classes are only available online. There is no music classes or a variety of art classes.

Seward is a beautiful town with beautiful scenery and community. But the school is lacking. There are some absolutely wonderful teachers who are inspiring and passionate, then there are others who are simply tenured in and could not care less. It is a "get by" school where greatness is not pushed, students are told to graduate, and not much more than that. I do see things changing though, and I am hopeful for big change within the next couple years.
