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 don't really know how it compares to other schools, but I do know that we have caring nurses who are at our disposal almost 24/7 and police/safety men who make themselves familiar and loved by all of the students. While I say this, if things get out of hand, the know how to get professional and deal with the situation.
