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.

Connections is a homeschool program for students in Alaska. The freedom to pursue what I want, as well as to learn at my own pace, has really given me the ability to excel. It teaches me responsibility and time management as well, skills that every teenager should learn before heading off to college.
