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 daughter attended this school, and she loved it. Now she studies in another school because we relocated to the neighbor town; however, she misses Sequoia Middle School. It is a great friendly atmosphere there. The daughter told me a lot of good things about many teachers in this school. I would recommend this school for your child if you want your child will be in place with good people.
