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 experience at Walden Groove was a remarkable one. I made life long friendships and was challenge to grow academically. I do feel that there were not proactive supports for college readiness. Everything I learned about postsecondary opportunities was through my parents or friends. I met with the counselor about twice a year and they only checked to see if I was on track to graduate. I did not get guidance or support regarding what career track to pick based on profitability or passion. I feel like they kept giving presentations about importance to go to college but never guided support. I also feel like at the career fairs there was a lot more focus on military careers vs technical education or college.

Walden grove has been good it like a high school Musical. Really fun and a very active school. There's was multi time they had lost something I need and the couldn't find it. And some Staff are a bit rude when your trying to get help but most of them are really nice.

This school made me feel right at home once I got used to it. All of my teachers provided great support for everything I was doing. The biggest complaint I have is the classes offered, because multiple AP classes are no longer available, and the Engineering program is ending this year.

The school provided me with a homeschool option, and I was able to return the next year because of their help and support. The teachers and administration are enthusiastic, helpful, and they're good at what th...
