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.

The school is overrated and the education level is emblematic of any typical public school. This is a poor man’s version of a private school and doesn’t compare in its quality. Most parents obsess over the excuses as to why their kid didn’t get into college half the time and it’s comical.

If you are trying to get your child into a UC or high-ranking college this may not be as easy at Troy. The school is ranked highly.
