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.

I like Kerr because all the students are really nice. One main thing I like is how Dr. Beird interacts with all the students and "plays" around. I would choose Kerr if I could stay in middle school.

Almost every month they take all of us students into a room and discuss certain topics such as anti-bullying, computer and web safety, and alcohol and drug awareness. Throughout the school they also have bully boxes where kids can report bullying going on in the school.

Most everyone at my school is overwhelmingly kind. My school goes by the motto of "Kindness Matters". We all support each other in our achievements and when one another is down. There is a diversity in colors in my school, black, white, tan, brown, etc. We are all very proud of being a Kerr cougar.

The pick up line after school... I can only liken it to the Wild West. It's every person for themselves. It's a hot mess. It's dangerous and frustrating. The band teachers are not accommodating to special needs students. The school is dilapidated and should be torn down. It's a health hazard.
