GreatSchools is an American national nonprofit organization that provides information about PK-12 schools and education. The website provides ratings and comparison tools based on student growth, college readiness, equity, and test scores for public schools in the U.S. As of July 2017, the GreatSchools database contains information for more than 138,000 public, private, and charter schools in the United States. GreatSchools was founded in 1998 as a school directory and parenting resource in Santa Clara County, with seed funding from New Schools Venture Fund. The next four years (1999–2002), the school ratings expanded statewide in California and expanded nationwide in 2003. In 2008–2011 the College Bound Program was launched, funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Robertson Foundation, and the Walton Family Foundation. In 2013, GreatSchools received a three-year grant from the Walton Family Foundation and saw Zillow integrate GreatSchools information such as school search, school ratings and reviews into their real estate database. In 2014, there was an expanded partnership with Maponics. More information...
