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.

I went to Merrol Hyde K-12. I had some great teachers who taught me so much. I loved the small environment and it felt like home. Small is a blessing and a curse though, it also felt like the walls were closing in on me sometimes. I'd like to see a little more college planning going on at school.

A great school that attempts and succeeds in facilitating meaningful conversations and promotes learning on a deeper level. Its faculty are amazing and engage deeply with their student's well-being.
