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 liked the community of Waukee South Middle School. Most of the teachers were wonderful. I most enjoyed the science and band classes offered. The teachers in these departments truly cared about their students.

I had students follow me home, and jump me. I was bullied badly. Came home crying, scared to go the next day, and moved cities because of bullying and sexual assault.
