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.

The best part is the engagement with teachers since they showed dedication towards their students to achieve success. The worst part would be the cleanliness of the bathrooms and lack of immediate access to counselors.

My experience in this school, it was very fun with my classmates, this school offers good education and opportunities for its students, students have the opportunity to join clubs that can give them trips to universities and other places to help students focus on what they will do in their future. In my case, I would have liked to be able to join more clubs to have more diversity and experiences of them

Being at Norte Vista since my Freshman year, I can say it's been a pretty good time. Not too bad not too good, I would recommend to people who want a high school experience that's good enough, but if you have the opportunity to go to a better school, go ahead.

doesn't prioritize their student's mental health as they kick kids out of counseling at the beginning of the year and promise them that they will be back in with the hiring of new counselors but these "new counselors" never came and now its the end of the year.
