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.

My childrens school is great. You have teachers that get to know you and your child very well. I love the fact that the school offers a variety of programs and courses that help pretty much all children.

My daughter has been attending this school for 2 years and I am very happy with the curriculum. She is in 1st grade and on a 2nd grade reading level. I have had nothing but great experiences while having to interact with the teachers and staff.
