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.

The atmosphere and environment in West Point is so inviting and I feel like part of the family every day when I walk through those doors. Although the academics can be a little bit too soft sometimes, the staff is really nice and it makes me enjoy school.

West Point has horrible bullying policies. They sweep everything under the rug to make the school system look perfect. They ignore the problems at hand and chose favorites.

All West Point Schools cares about is looks and not personality.
