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.

The room for independent study students was perfect. Teachers readily available for any questions. The guidance counselors were so friendly and helpful. They offered to complete college applications, essays and scholarship forms with me whenever was convenient for my situation.
