I can review the test score rates of public schools, but what do I reference to determine the rating of specific private schools? Do they report to specific agencies? How do I best determine whether the private school has a good rating and is worth it? Please advise. Thanks!

If you are beginning to look for a private school, start with Choosing a School 101 and work out from there.
