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.

Spring Garden has a great athletic program. If you wish to pursue a career in athletics you would do well at Spring Garden; however, academics were not held as highly. Spring Garden does not prepare you for college or any of the classes you would be taking.

They work in some areas. Equal opportunities should be given as well as equal punishments.

There is a handful of teachers that actually value students anymore. Many teachers judge the students or rate them in a class. If you do not appeal to their liking they will not go out of their way to help you.
