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.

I would not advise attending Taunton Alternative Highschool. If you have to chance to graduate from a traditional high school such as Taunton High, you should. Alternative High School did not prepare me for college and in my eyes even set me back for my college courses.
