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 a genuinely good small school. It does face the expected issue that come with its size though; difficulty in hiring and lack of sports or community. The teachers range from way over qualified 50 year olds who are borderline experts in the field to 25 year olds who have trouble managing their class. There is a heavy focus on college readiness but it is not always absorbed by the students.

I've attended collegium since i was in kindergarten and have no complaints, the teachers care about the students and the diversity shown in the school is wonderful. Like every school we have our up's and downs but over all it is a wonderful and safe campus.

I've been at Collegium charter school for 13 years and I've enjoyed my time. Yes, it has its ups and downs but overall it's a good school. the teachers there care a lot about each one of us and while it might be a bit chaotic and vastly different than most schools: it's quaint and peaceful.

There are some wonderful teachers, but they can't overcome the unsupportive and ineffective administrative. Teacher turnover is high, which is not surprising. If you have to go here, K-3 will likely be fine, but then find another option. This quality if this school has been in serious decline for ye...

Good from k-3. When both my kids entered 4th grade, it completely changed. Teachers were overwhelmed with behavioral issues in the classroom and administration would not deal with it. Instead they suggested my kid get counseling to learn how strategies in how to not let behavioral issues impact his...

Collegium is not the same school it was 10 or 12 years ago. There are some individual teachers who are absolutely fantastic and completely invested in their students. Others, not so much. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that school administration supports those who care over those who don't. Neithe...
