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.

My experience is kinda good but I have some bad moments. my favorite grade is 2,3,4, and 6. I enjoyed 2 grade because of my teachers we had a lot of field trips and had a lot of fun. I enjoyed 3 grade because of the field trips and the afterschool basketball program.

I met a lot of good friends at Syracuse Academy of Science Charter School. The class sizes were small so I felt like teachers were able to connect with and make an impact on students.
