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.

No diversity at this school and parents and children of color are isolated and not part of the community and faculty and staff supports this practice.

Not a great experience at this school. I work long hours and cannot participate in the PTA which ultimately impacts my children.
