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.

After moving to Houston near the end of 2023, there were two racial slurs yelled at my son in his 1st week, multiple fights involving my child where we had to go to the ER. To date, property of my student has been broken or stolen multiple times - no accountability. Requesting a transfer as my student's grades have plummeted after 2.5 months of attendance. It is not worth staying til end of 2024 school year.

Culture of school - bullying, fights daily and my child has been impacted socially and academically after transferring almost 3 months ago. Believe the low rating. I am desperately trying to transfer him from this school.
