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.

The biggest problem in this school is that teachers of middle school students can't handle them. And because of that students barely get any information from the lesson because the teachers need the whole period to calm the students down.

MEANWHILE, there’s a “Respect for all” and “No bullying zone” in the hallways of that school b...
