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.

West Ridge Middle School provides good fundementals for students as they continue to high school. The extra curricular activities (clubs) are not extremely prevent at this school. Most teachers are very organized engaging but some lack the enthusiasm to provide a great education experience. Overall, the school is very friendly and sets their students up for success in high school.
