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.

B.E.S.T. program is the W.O.R.S.T.! Child there for almost 3 yrs. without resolve to things that had been done to him. 01/26/17 head hit on metal door frame due to Marla Gilbert pulling him into room culpability could not be denied & not preventative measures were used by her, 11/12/18 hair pulled by Julie Snisko T.A. in the presence of Jennifer Gorman-Psy, Marla Gilbert-Teacher (who laughed & covered her mouth, other TA's ALL of whom denied culpability in report. Child has been honest to a fault even telling on himself admitted to in all IEP meetings so this is how an honest child it treated when he advises his advocating Mom who is his only advocate. This is not even all of what occurred in this placement. Cameras with audio need to be installed in ALL SPED classrooms, hallways & ALL transportation!!!
