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.

LaPorte can be a good school or a bad school depending on the person. The school can teach you a lot if you have the right teacher because some teachers don't teach that well. Sometimes you have to do your own research, otherwise you may not pass the class. Also, some students are very disruptive, and they aren't always delt with fairly. It is a great place to meet amazing people and learn new things. There are a lot of sports and clubs for everyone to participate in, if they choose to.

This school has issues. Some teachers don't care, there's a drug problem, and it's got a C from the state. However, there are a few elite teachers that really show what it means to be a slicer. Without these select group of elite teachers, this school wouldn't be worth going to. They make learning a...
