[quote=Anonymous]Greatschools doesn't typically have a numerical rating for private schools because the numerical rating is based on state test scores and private schools do not take state exams. For the parent/teacher/student reviews, I consider it being akin to an amazon review--like a pp said--take with a grain of salt, and you need at least twenty or so reviews before it becomes a representative sample. What I think it is a phenomenal resource for is looking up test scores (for public schools), neighborhoods, racial and socioeconomic demographics, student teacher ratio, and other numerical data that might be informative. Of course, you can find this info elsewhere, but it's nice to have it all consolidated in an easy to navigate site.[/quote]
