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 Dearborn stem academy is an awesome school that provides students with many different pathways that let students explore many careers in the STEM field. The only thing i would change from this school would be the structure of the classes.

We didn't have many experiences like other high schools, we shared a building with another high school and I spent my whole 4 years on 1 floor (and 1/2 the first floor). We only had an art class in 9th grade and we didn't have any other extracurricular classes or clubs.
