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.

Raised two kids through MG. My husband and I are also MG grads. Both kids at UW Madison. Math and English programs very strong. Great music and sport programs. Teachers that stay in the district long term. Highly recommend.
