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.

J Sterling Morton West is a very unique school. It's a good school that has helped me grow my talents in many ways. It offers many services for those who need them, and is overall in a decent area for a highschooler to thrive. It has its ups and downs, but what school doesn't?

My experience at Morton West has been great. I've always been treated with respect by teachers and I always had resources available to me whenever I needed it. I appreciate how Morton strives to meet every students needs and it goes to show how well they set their students up for success.
