Niche grades and rankings are calculated using dozens of public data sets and millions of reviews. Niche data scientists and user researchers rigorously analyze data and user opinions to assess the key aspects of K-12 Schools, Colleges, and Places to Live. Every month, millions of students and families use the Niche grades and report cards to find the right school or neighborhood.
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.

Overall this is one of the best schools especially when it comes to sports. Although I've been in the Early College program since the 7th grade, I've been doing sports for them since the 6th and I love it very much.

Excellent school, great teachers, multiple avenues for students to get plugged into activities, clubs, art and music, sports, and more. Several college courses are offered as well as classes in career and technical education. Teachers, staff, and administration who care. Supportive community. Lacking diversity, but to be somewhat expected in a small rural area.

The school offered great opportunities when I was in school and has even more now. Class sizes are small, and the teachers and staff are caring and willing to he...
Once had the reputation of a superior school district but now lacking in leadership. Money management, staff happiness, true concern for student learning and as anything other than a test score, and poor reputation amongst area schools are all sources of great concern. We were also once a great spor...
