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.

Three of my children went to Joyce Kilmer. The teachers are very engaging with the students and I couldn’t be happier. My 1st grader is reading at third grade level !

We've only done Kindergarten so far, but the teachers and staff have been great. Very responsive, my child seems to be learning a lot and he's happy. Plus, he enjoys the before/after school program

Agree with everyone that after so many years without a good principal finally we have a Super Great Principal after Dr. Morton left. So Happy. Dr. Ric will make Kilmer Great Again !

Awesome school! I have two kids and they absolutely loved their teachers and SACC experience. They learned a lot and the feedback with their teachers was exactly what we needed. They are excited to come back!
