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.

Everyone graduates- lots of hand holding and guidance. Can be good and bad. Extreme lack of diversity, being a small town in upstate New York.

Teachers can be understanding, but can be too nice and let way too many things slide and then dwell on the little things.
