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.

We absolutely love this school. South Douglas has some of the best staff, students, and parents that a school can have. We are moving on to middle school this coming up year but will truly miss our little family at SDES. Can't speak highly enough; this is a wonderful school.

Absolutely love this school! We do school choice and drive 30 minutes here every day. It is so worth it. The teachers truly care about their students and give so much of their time and effort to ensure they are being challenged. They also ensure that the kids know how much they are loved!
