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.

Horrible experience with many employees. Teachers yell at children. Very rude. They do not create a safe environment for a child to learn on all levels.

My daughter absolutely loves this school. The school community is supportive not only in the learning process, but the emotional one as well, especially during the pandemic.
