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.

My experience in Sparks middle schools was a pleasure. I got to meet 2 wonderful people that i have never met in my 13 years that both are similar to me because they love the same stuff as i do. Because of them 2 friends i had a wonderful 2 years and we all had fun together. What i really liked about Sparks Middle School is that even tho some teachers can be really mean sometimes, they do it for our good of paying attention and for us to study and get good grades. I also really like that the principal that we had was very fun because he has a young like attitude and wants the best for us when we get to High School in which he always says that we should "Own your Future".
