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 Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

The administration was the only thing about the school that was truly disorganized. The teachers there generally made an effort to see all the kids was happy, healthy, and safe. B-UHS is located in a rural community; therefore, I think its push for technical school has been higher than college for many years. However, my last year there they were doing a significantly better job at preparing students for college.
