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 four years of high school were an absolute roller coaster. Throughout the four years, the schedule was never consistent. The education was pretty good but the students enrolled in the school were a mess. The faculty have been rude to students when under pressure. The teachers were treated not the nicest or being directed to do outrageous things that cut into the time of the lesson. There is work being done but who knows when the school will be back on its feet.

My experience at Mastbaum is an average one. Mastbaum is not a very highly ranked academic school however it gives a very good exposure to careers you may be interested in. The school safety is very good but the environment of the school is not a very good one. There's lots of things the administration is trying to do to fix the school academics, but as of right now it is an average school academically. I see a bright future for this school with what the administration is attempting to do.

The teachers are great and care about the students. I believe the Principal, however, cares only about money. She charges the student a dollar for each temporary id (4 inch piece of paper and does not let the parents know until graduation the amount of money it costs. One poor student had to pay 100...
