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.

The building for East Campus was fantastic. I hope in the future that they combine the freshmen center with east campus. It would be nice to have all grades in the same building so freshmen could meet more upperclassmen sooner. Overall, I had a good experience at Lockport. I did not have a good relationship with all teachers, but I did feel like the academics were appropriate and lined up with my expectations for the courses.
