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 was in Idea since 3rd grade. The School supports the students a lot and the they strive for each student to get into college with them helping you in every step of the process. I rarely had any bad experiences personally.

The education is Great over all but they drain you out so much with exames and classes that you don't get to enjoy your high school experience
