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.

This school is horrible and starves kids. Don’t recommend sending your kids here. Everyday my child comes home with bruises and bite marks from the teachers. Honestly shut this school down right now I’m taking my kid out and I’m happy about it. And me and my son are gonna be happier in Chicago.

This school does what it can for what it has to work with. Students have daily use of technology and are challenged. Some teachers will do anything for these kids.
