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 love New America school they have a very good flexible schedule. I told the counselors that my goal was to graudate as a junior year and they helped me a lot to reach out my goal. The teachers are very great. It's something I will recommend others to go to New America even my future kids will go there.
