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.

The principal at ISM is amazing - very professional, caring, smart and hard working. Our 3 kids - one who is on an IEP and is disabled- have been treated with respect and caring. The academics, extra-curriculars and school community are excellent. The music programs are best in class.
