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 have went to genoa all my life. I feel like it would be a great school to send my kids to. The teacher ls there are great, they really work to help you succeeded. I have played sports ever since i was able to join the junior high at genoa and i have loved it. They have great coaches that push you to your limits,to help you succeed in life.

Really good school up until 10th grade biology. Creationism runs rampant. I'd steer clear, if you value a decent education for your kid.
