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.

It is fairly decent, however it doesn't stick out neccessarily in any particular aspect. I think if you truly want to be prepared for college and stick out as a college applicant you have to go out of your way to find programs you can join to stand out.

I AM A HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATING STUDENT AT DEARBORN HIGH SCHOOL. I ENJOY THE ACADEMICS STANDARDS AND APPRECIATE THE SKILL WITH WHICH STUDENTS WHO ARE INVOLVED IN LEARNING ARE PUSHED TO THEIR EXTREME BY GRANTING THEM COLLEGE FRESHER COURSES. i WAS ONE OF THE FEW FORTUNATE ONES WHO EXCELLED AND TOOK COURSES AT HENRY FORD COMMUNITY COLLEGE. THE ATHLETICS ALSO PROVIDED SUPPORT TO THOSE THAT ARE DESIRING PROFESSIONAL SPORTS CAREERS. I DID SPORTS IN ORDER TO STAY PHYSICALLY FIT AND BE ABLE TO GET FUTURE SCHOLARSHIPS FOR MY PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS IN DENTAL PROGRAM.
