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 go to Ernest ward and I believe that they are for the most part a good school. I think that it would be a better school if they would just get rid of the covid standards. We don't even wear our masks unless we have to. Even though we have to do the covid restrictions it is a good school it was very fun last year before all of the covid stuff happened. But, if you need counseling then they have excellent counselors. Don't get in trouble though because you will be in iss/ilr for the rest of the year if they deem it necessary.
This is an amazing school, they have great education at this school. The teachers are nice for the most aprt, theres only one specific teacher Ive had issues with. I recomend this school to anyone who has the option to attend public school.
This school is excellent. Bullying isn't widespread and most kids are well-behaved. The lunches are nutritious but some are entirely inedible. At the beginning of the year, there is mental health testing, but there isn't a way to reach out other than talking directly to a staff member, which is very...
As a current student, this school is one of the best. The inclusivity of families year-round is spectacular and most teachers here are amazing. When in crisis, our teachers and principals will always put us and our safety first. The lunches here are nutritious and delicious.
