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.

overall, I would say good parts are the teachers students and the numerous clubs and activities available for students. If I had to choose one bad part, I'd say if the student doesn't care about his education, the teachers and faculties won't have much of an effect on the students to an extent.
