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 best experiences when I was in meadowlark middle was that I got more advanced in the stuff I learned in elementary school and I made many new friends at school. My worst experiences in meadowlark middle was the wake up times and the general college readiness really not being there.
