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.

Girls Leadership Academy of Arizona is an all girls school. What I love about my school is that their are so many opportunity for us young women, our teachers are able to give us the attention we need because it is a small school. We have a chance to get one on one and aren't afraid to ask any questions. The school is all about women empowerment.

It's an all around nice school, the techers are kind and do their best to make the classes fun. The school looks great, it's always clean and there's little to no graffitti in the bathrooms. most of the students that come here either are here to get a good future or they came here to restart which means almost all the students are kind and they all do things from a good place.
