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.

My overall experience at Scott's Branch is great I like my teachers and most of my classes. The only bad thing about Scott's Branch in my opinion is that they don't have many extracurricular activities and a lot of the students cause distractions in the class while others try to learn.
