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.

There's a large focus on sports- huge amounts of funding go towards sports programs every year. However, the academics aren't overshadowed too much either, with plenty of high level courses available as well as extracurricular opportunities.

North Allegheny, as a whole, is what I consider a school primarily focused on STEM. While we do have support for the arts, it is not as supported as the sciences.

Overall an awful experience to go there as a student. If you fit in with the kids and are just like everyone else, you are fine. But if you are different from everyone else in terms of skin color, behave differently, etc. then expect to be heavily bullied. Don't expect teachers to stop them either....
