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 son has excelled from his first day there. He attended the summer bridge program before the school year started and it really prepared him for entering High School. His teachers have been very supportive of him and work closely to ensure he succeeds. If there was an issue that came up the school...
