GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I will be changing school districts. Very disappointed as I thought I was going to get quality education for my kids.

I love it here. It’s a small school with a lot of heart. The PTA is amazing and provides so much for the kids. I am so sad that my oldest is going to 6th already.
