The bulletin board for America's public schools. Parents, teachers, students, and staff. One community per school.

Compare two schools

Pick any two US public K-12 schools and we'll line up their enrollment, demographics, student-teacher ratio, lunch-program participation, and test scores side by side. The resulting URL is shareable.

How it works

Type a school name, city, or district. Pick a school from the dropdown for each side, then submit. We pull each school's NCES profile, demographic breakdown, latest enrollment, and the most recent year of state-test scores we have for that state, and lay them out in a side-by-side table.

The comparison gets its own URL (`/compare/<state>/<school-1>/vs/<state>/<school-2>`) so you can bookmark it or send it to someone in a text message or email.
