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 absolutely love Redwood Academy--the tight nit charter school only enhances my learning experience. Above all, my teachers care. They care for me academically and ensure that I am also cared for personally. I don't think I would feel the same at any public school, as they insincerely assign you counselors that accommodate for hundreds of students. Despite the welcome and warmth of the school, I do wish for a greater plethora of AP classes and physical fitness in high school. Their message does focus predominately on academics, "preparing for college and independent living"; yet, I likewise miss the bonding experiences I fondly remember in my middle school PE classes. Additionally, a greater range of AP classes would not only appeal to me but my other classmates would likewise wish to experience challenging courses and augment our arsenals of knowledge.

Redwood Academy is one of the best charter schools in Northern California. My tenth grade daughter is a few points from a 4.0 and is excited to go to school. The teachers are involved and care about their students. The school is small, which enables students the time and gives them the help needed t...
