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.

It is a great charter school, but I would love to see them include different clubs so that every student can be active.

A few teachers at national academy foundation actually care about their students learning lessons effectively. Most teachers tend to only teach lessons good enough just for the students to pass but not to actually learn for real life experience or to get students ready for college. The communication is pretty good , the teachers inform their students about every two weeks. The students know exactly what they need to do to improve their grade and how their grades improved.
