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.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

I love my school for their schedule. I am able to choose the classes I want to take and can even take them online if I don't want to come to school. They do however need to offer more electives.

My overall experience at Excelsior is very good, they have really good teachers and resources. I really feel like I have grown well at this school. Making great connections and friendships helped throughout my journey. I would like to see change in having more events that everyone feels welcome too.

Teachers were not supported unless they were part of the in group as so deemed by the principal. I reached out to superintendants for support regarding some...
