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.

A good thing about the Charles school is its small size which allows students to deeply connect with their teachers. this also provides for a smaller class size ensuring students are able to get the help that they need. a downside is that there are no sports and all extracurricular programs are student led so if there is not a lot of interest sparked there will be no programs.

My experience with The Charles School at Ohio Dominican has been great they have supported me in various ways also have worked with various programs like Lead the Way. And also helped me to get into early college at Ohio Dominican University. I would suggest this school for people of the strong willed and for people who are looking for an opportunity to get ahead in college.

Good staff, very friendly. The early college program is a great opportunity; it provides the choice to attend Columbus State Community College, or Ohio Dominican University while the tuition and fees are payed for by the high school. There are various clubs and external opportunities, which are especially beneficial for urban students.

Below a star number one. The Charles School doesn't deserve the privilege of a five-star!

They do not pay attention to their students that are having problems with their ongoing bullies or any teacher who has issues with other races of children, yes its true. I feel terrible for letting my k...
