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.

I would give it a 1 because I saw three little boy bully and fight 1 little boy and stomp him to the ground and the teacher didn't do anything about.

My school is the best because over the years I've developed good strong relationships with the caring staff. No doubt about it! As I am limited in my mobility, I still have continued respect and support where ever I can. Thank you, John W. Carpenter!!
