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.

I would like to see more African American diversity and more celebration of Black History Month (BHM). As an African American student who is used to seeing the celebration BHM, it hurts to see a school with an 8% population of African Americans not celebrate this historic month. This month lets African American students know they are seen. Let's them know they are special.

In my experience at Stevenson, there are so many great teachers that truly want us to learn and grow. I can't express how grateful I am to them for going the extra step to make us feel welcomed and engage us in learning in a way that doesn't feel forced or insincere. I have an IEP and accommodations for my learning path, the Academic Resource Center or ARC has been incredibly helpful to me since I am allowed to go there to take a test or assignment and receive one on one help from someone there. I can confidently say this school has shaped me to be a better person and student.

I could not even walk in a cafeteria, it is so chilly in there. I wish they changed the A/C to warm air. I will talk to my mom abou...

I'm not going to say this was the best of the five Utica schools I've attended, rather the least worst. UCS loves to brag about how great their schools are, but they only base it on academic performance. The real problem with Stevenson and its related schools is a largely ignored one - it crushes th...
