You may subscribe to their free email newsletter, My School Stats.
You can also sign up for information about a different school and subscribe to other free GreatSchools newsletters.
It’s a great source of information for educators wanting to know what’s happening in other schools and what parents think about schooling!
For example, they offer a list of the top five high schools in each state. You can also read comments by parents of students in these schools!
I especially like their suggestions in Choosing the Right School.
I started a subscription several years ago to follow their reports about a school attended by a grand daughter. Each time I check, their information includes something about at least one item I had not considered as clearly.
Perhaps others will also fine it useful.
