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.

This school has always prioritized academic success. Uplift Williams Prep thrives on the idea of all of their students pursuing a career and going to college.

I liked that most of the teachers get along with their students and how that they care about us being successful. The only downside I think this high school has been that it focuses a lot on college prep, which can lead to a lot of stress for all students. Even though they gave us a rigorous amount of work, I am grateful because the amount and level of work in college seems easy, but only thanks to their college preparation programs. I do wish they had more AP classes and offered more technical programs.

Honestly, I love my school. Yes, we have had some bumps on the road where the teachers are being overloaded and the organization is not the best sometimes. But what do you expect? Last Year we had horrible administrators. They couldn't give two ounces of water for us the students, the parents, or th...
