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.

I like that Ceiba Is preparing students for college from 6-12 grade. I would like to see somethings change though, like more arts, sports,and field trips. They focus more of science and tech but they don't really focus of dramatic arts or visual arts.

It an ok school. I wouldn't say its even a high school. They try to prepare you for college. They pick the class you take. They barely made two sports. We barely have freedom. We cant get out of school to get some food. They baned hoddies.

The students are terrible and the teachers take away points as "punishment". The toilets are always plugged and there is only one bathroom!
