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.

I enjoyed the welcoming enviroment at TLA as my teachers have been kind, understanding, and empathetic. I have molded bonds that will last a lifetime with my teachers, however, there are some key negatives. The communication does need work as I have found out about events last minute, but other than that I have had a positive experience at Texas Leadership Of Abilene.
