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.

my experience at Bonney lake was pretty good, I Moved from auburn to Bonney lake and it definitely was a big culture change; but it was still good. when I transferred I was only there for a month and half id say before covid shut everything down, but the school was really helpful during that time, and with me having a loss of an important family member and already struggle with my mental health they were super kind at giving me resources on helping me out.

But not without hearing about how hated I am for being Native, autistic, and LGB...
