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.

Sometimes one student can be held back a little bit from going further because the peers around him are not has smart and the teacher wants to make sure everyone understands the concept. However, the teachers at Maize South Middle do a great job of finding ways to challenge all students. They really care about getting students ready for the jump to high school, then to college.

Most everyone cares about each other. It's like being in a family. On Fridays that buzz that carries around the school is special, so many opportunities for anything you want to do. Science Olympiad was a ton of fun.

Not only that, but they also always run out of food for students...

Teaching is effective. Although situations and circumstances can arise, it is important to disclose the information through parent contact.

Teachers that want to argue with a parent when a parent says their child is sick and should not be docked 50% for not turning it in on time (as they were are home sick with me). Teachers that tell kids to call their folks during the middle of the day...
