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.

G-Star was a wonderful experience but it is limited to affixation on either acting or digital media/production, there was also no sports tam or clubs at the school.

Inclusive school that offers digital animation, IB, film and acting tracks. The school is not massive, so students don't get lost in the shuffle. They do need to improve the size of the cafeteria, and the school is showing its age. I do wish they included more traditional arts classes. Like many schools they have struggled to attract and retain teachers in the past couple of years. Overall, they offer a unique niche in the arts and a place where LGBTQ kids thrive.
