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 good school for those seeking a different approach to high school education. The coursework is helpful in preparing students for college. However, it is not a technology heavy school, which can make it difficult in the adjustment from high school to college.

Founders was a great experience for me. Though it was a small school, I had great teachers who knew their students well and wished to help them as best as they could. The community at the school was united and it seemed that everybody knew everybody. There was probably not any better school I could have gone to.

My kids have great teachers and they are learning a lot. They are currently at the Grammar campus. When we started, from looking at the re...
