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.

Not good! Pushed aside often because we are white. Our concerns are not truly heard and the children suffer as a result. Thus, we, as parents, are left frustrated. We are all equal. Quit digging up the past, putting reasons in these kids heads to hate one as mother. BE THE ROLE MODEL!!

All of the faculty are extremely devoted to helping each child excel in academics while understanding that not every child learns the same ways.
