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.

Great teachers with the advanced learning program offered at this school. The school is clean, friendly, and also has many fun activities and classes to participate in. After school clubs are great. You will have a lot of opportunities here to be involved in a variety of after-school or during school activities.

What I loved was some of the legendary teachers. I had good friends and so many wonderful memories that I won't ever forget. I was treated well and my eighth grade year was so much fun I loved it. Overall I really enjoyed Mountain Ridge!
