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.

Starting at Fairley was rocky at first, but they started to grow over the years. The school is doing an awesome job keeping students on track for the future, but it could still use some work.

I love that Fairley gave me the opportunity to experience multiple college environments. The only thing I would change is the participation in the community.
