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.

We have loved all of our teachers at Lowell. They have a great system of changing teachers for different subjects, like middle school, which will help prepare them for that practice at their next school. I'm grateful that my kids have attended Lowell and would recommend it to everyone.
