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.

Pacoima Middle School is a unique and interesting school. It's a special school with many gifted students and individuals. To me, this is a hidden gem as I don't think it's rated that fairly. You meet friends that will stick with you until forever on. Some are mean but ignore them because they pull you down. There is a Performing Arts Magnet which is interesting. There is also a Computer/Science Magnet that teaches complex subjects. People here are really bright. There are teachers who are very kind and don't be shy to ask them anything. There are some neutral teachers where it depends on you on how you think of them. All in all, you don't have to listen to me; try the school yourself.
