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 kids have been at the school for a year. I feel like so far. I am pretty impressed with the school. The communication with staff is pretty prompt. My only thing I wish they had for the elementary part of the school is some type of sports for the kids to get into. A lot of activities that To include them and afterschool stuff which is nice kids are busy so would be nice if I can put them in some type of sports activity through school but other than that school is great
