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.

My favorite part about Rancho-Starbuck Intermediate School was their FLEX program, where a student could get extra help in a subject that they're not doing too well in, or if they are meeting a specific standard, they get to pick a fun class to do instead.

Worst school experience ever in my life. The ceiling tiles are falling down onto kids here then causes injuries like concussions. Our floor tiles are opening and spilling a toxic glue that can poison us.
