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.

Averill Park High School was a great general high school. The sports program takes precedence over the music and arts program, and there was often budget cuts that caused the music program difficulties. School counselors avoided mentioning anything related to the music program. The administration is not the best, but they get their job done.
4.0 Junior

The staff and teachers are sweet for the most part but I sometimes wish there was more help to the students with mental challenges and a more understanding and empathy towards them.
5.0 Senior

Some amazing teachers, some awful teachers. Overall good in the science, and music, and art areas, not so much in English or History, or some of math. But good otherwise.
