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.

Harmony was a great school in terms of building friends and knowing everyone. It is a relatively small school, so the community we made during my time there was one I yearned for. The worst part about harmony was the athletic part. We didn't have an excellent athletic program. One thing I would like to see change would be having a better athletic program where kids could excel not just at their academics but also pursuing sports if they choose to.

I'm a student at this school right now and boy do I hate it here. Everyone is racist and their vocabulary only consists of Racial slurs. The food here is just overly disgusting, but if you don't eat, they get angry at you for sleeping. They expect you to be so ready to learn after lunch, when really...
