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.

Emerson Middle School was a wonderful experience for me. As a disabled child they made sure I had all the necessary tools to excel and succeed in life. When Covid hit my household was always full of food that were brought to us by the school district. I was recognized and always included in everything they could. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.

These kids are shoved into overcrowded classes, and the ones that cannot keep up are discarded seemingly, by shuffling around their classes and putting options into place that are never followed up on... Very poor follow through.
