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.

Mckinley Technology lives up to its description, offering STEM courses of all sorts to accommodate the endeavors of students attending the school. Although most courses successfully prepare students for future challenges, there can be certain improvements in college readiness.
