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.

Briscoe has a lively atmosphere with very kind, helpful and supportive teachers and staff. Majority of the students are very friendly and active within their academics as well as extracurricular activities. I am a part of the athletics department, and I love the coaches as well as my teammates. The occasional fight does occur, but usually settles down very quickly so we can go amongst our regularly scheduled program.
