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 very small school. The teachers are great, there is a good teacher-student relationship that's provided. The classes are small and give a good learning environment.

Hopkins Academy is a school with many problems. To begin, if you are not in the sports program, you are absolutely nobody.
