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.

I would say that my overall experience with my school has been great. The teachers work very hard to prepare us for college and our future. Another thing I love about my school that sets us apart from others, is that our school feels like a family. Everyone cares and looks out for one another.

My son was bullied relentlessly when he went to Russell Middle School (a feeder school to Millard West). Although we attempted numerous times to get help, help never came. He ended up under the care of a psychologist as he had become suicidal as a result. During 8th grade year, it was suggested that...
