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.

A typical middle school experience. Not much to say other than wow everyone was angsty, conceited and insecure at the same time. The teachers tried there best to be helpful and understanding but there would always be a certain students who wasn't agreeable. I was friendly with most student and staff so my experience was not bad per se, but a few students made it a little more chaotic it need be.

This has been our experience: In 6th grade she had a teacher who bullied her, the principal was no help. In 7th...
